Mardilo

Manmay koste, manmay bouze
Annou danser, mardilo sote baton
En tradisyon, vinn selebre
E prezerve, mardilo sote baton

Aryo mardilo, mardilo sote baton
Aryo mardilo, mardilo sote baton

Manmay koste, manmay bouze
Annou danser, mardilo sote baton
En tradisyon, vinn selebre
E prezerve, mardilo sote baton

Aryo mardilo, mardilo sote baton
