Skirt
in the skirt a faia*
in the skirt, a faia
in the skirt, a skirt, a faia, a skirt
made of cambraia*,
the skirt, the skirt!
And being so flighty.
alfaia* I am.
Ill spin the skirt!
Olaré, spinning!
Give another turn.
One two three: fly!
Fire and water
earth and salt
mandrake,
light crystal!
Shine and shine some more,
shine, how it shines
in the madrigals.
It will shine, it shone!
Ill spin the skirt
and the skirt spun round,
turn once more, once more spinning,
olaré, spun!
Olaré, traz-trazl
One, two, three spun,
once again go back,
olare traz-traz
one two three spun
and turn to go forwards!!!
