Lyrics : L-imhabba

Fittixt għorrief, filosfi u poeti
Biex mistoqsija lilhom saqsejt:
"X'inhi l-imħabba kbira taż-żgħażagħ?"
Din it-tweġiba f'qalbi hassejt

L'imħabba hi bacio, beso, Küsse
Ħaż li 'l qalbek tmiss u li jsejhulha 'kiss'
L-imhabba hi bewsa helwa zokkor
Li jimbuttawha x-xottejn waqt li jingħalqu l-għajnejn

U waqt li l-qalb ittambar bil-herqa
U thoss il-vini jikwu bin-nar
Sew jekk tingħata car jew bis-serqa
Fin-nofs tal-lejla, fl-eqqel tan-nhar

Mort sibt il-freaks, Hell's Angels
U l-hippies u l-mistoqsija lilhom tennejt
L-istess tweżiba dejjem hadt minnhom
U mbagħad fi kliem dawn kollha jien żejt:

L'imħabba hi bacio, beso, Küsse
Ħaż li 'l qalbek tmiss u li jsejhulha kiss
L-imhabba hi bewsa helwa zokkor
Li jimbuttawha x-xottejn waqt li jingħalqu l-għajnejn

U waqt li l-qalb ittambar bil-herqa
U thoss il-vini jikwu bin-nar
Sew jekk tingħata car jew bis-serqa
Fin-nofs tal-lejla, fl-eqqel tan-nhar

L'imħabba hi bacio, beso, Küsse
Ħaż li 'l qalbek tmiss u li jsejhulha kiss
L-imhabba hi bewsa helwa zokkor
Li jimbuttawha x-xottejn waqt li jingħalqu l-għajnejn

Kemm it-Taljani u kemm l-Ispanjoli
L-Ġermaniżi, Ingliżi u Maltin
Staqseftom kolla sjiffmu bl-imħabba
U it-tweġiba tagħhom hi din:

L-imħabba hi bacio, bewsa, u Küss
