Oi Elnie Lyrics Meanings
by Tawith Sungkit

Oi Elnie koupusan ku
Kada po karau arau
Sunudan poboi molohing nu
Nung setuju kotoi amu

Aiso bo koususaan
Igitan ku boros nu
Sukupon po boi lapan balas
Om Ngoyon ku nogi ya tunangai

Kada ko kasaru
Do miruba
Okosupan to moti
Di yama nu
Lobi po kosusa nung koilo
Ei maman turang tua

Nga kada boi kokurayai
Tu ia noi korohiyanku
Iya no oh tundu undu ku
Nakapatai tanak mato ku

Oh Elnie

Oh my dearest Elnie
There's no need to rush
Explain it to your parents
Are they going to give their blessing or not?

Don't be sad
I will keep my promise
When you turn eighteen
I will send my (Engagement) proposal

Let's not make it too frequent
That we're seeing each other
Don't want to make it obvious
Your parents might soon find out
Even worse
If known
By the village chief

But don't take it personal
Because you are the only one I want
You are my beating heart
The one that captures my eyes
