Dinga linga Lena [English translation]

The day like yesterday

Left a memory

And a lingering souvenir

Dinga linga Lena who is fifteen years old

Said stop, do you know how it will be

If I do just like you want me to

It will be the best thing today

Dinga linga Lena

You do what a girl should do

Dinga linga Lena

Who taught you to play well

The day like today

Is a rainy day

Yes, a day that's good to have

Here I sit and drift

Into my thoughts

Is it sad or good

That the girl disappeared

Who was mine yesterday

Without any useful traces

Dinga linga Lena

You ran as fast as I

Dinga linga Lena

Are you thinking about me today

Without dressing

I walk down again

And it's raining on my hair and jeans

I drag myself to the school "the wasp"

Where I think she's enrolled and is

I stay at the edge of the schoolyard

When the bell rings and everyone goes home

Dinga linga Lena who is fifteen years old

Walks past me and I say "hello"

I just want to ask her if she remembers yesterday

And that she's my secret girl

But she passes me like if I was air

And she heads towards a new adventure

The day like yesterday

Left a memory

And a lingering souvenir

Dinga linga Lena who is fifteen years old

Said stop, do you know how it will be

If I do just like you want me to

It will be the best thing today

Dinga linga Lena

Does mom know what's going on

Dinga linga Lena

Does dad know what you take and get

Dinga linga Lena

Does mom know what's going on

Dinga linga Lena

Does dad know what you take and get
