Oho oh oh
Even if romance
doesn't show on this face,
Oho oh oh
will you stand by me without running away,
just being with me?
Oh... an uncompromising,
top-grade single guy am I, girl!
In my sight,
for this star
to start twinkling,
you are needed!
To do some shopping,
I went to the market,
my sweet jasmine!
Even there,
ladies' finger
oh, wasn't to be found!
Won't the calendar at home
show a good date for me?
As always, is Valentine's Day
an April Fool's Day only for me?
Will I ever take someone to a movie?
Will I ever reach my dream?
Will I ever get a couple's seat?
Or will it just be me alone until the very end?
Even if romance
doesn't show on this face...
{Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella
Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella
Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella
Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella li bella le} (x2)
I will live off your money,
but please take me in anyway, girl!
I will sing without any rhythm or flow,
so listen to me patiently, girl!
A tailless monkey like me,
accept me as your friend, girl!
And make sure the sorrow in my eyes
is completely wiped away, girl!
To settle right into my heart
and be a perfect fit, who is there, girl?
To blend like the red
into my blood, who else is there, girl?
It is only you, girl!
Look, my love balance
is sitting at zero, girl!
Like a bank loan left unpaid
by a beer baron, you remain unsettled, girl!
Oh, an uncompromising,
top-grade single guy am I, girl!
In my sight,
for this star
to start twinkling,
you are needed!
To do some shopping,
I went to the market,
my sweet jasmine!
Even there,
ladies' finger
oh, wasn't to be found!
Won't the calendar at home
show a good date for me?
As always, is Valentine's Day
an April Fool's Day only for me?
Will I ever take someone to a movie?
Will I ever reach my dream?
Will I ever get a couple's seat?
Am I going to be all alone until the very end?
Even if romance
doesn't show on this face... mm... mm...
will you stay without running away,
right by my side? ...mm... mm...
{Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella
Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella
Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella
Hey...
Lupa lupa li bella li bella le} (x4)

Rhyme
