IRERY MADAMA (Ifanihy)

           IRERY MADAMA
Irery madama, irery tao an-tanàna
Fa tsy ao ramose, fa lasa nadeha tournée
Toa sakodiavatra izy ny hatory, toa oriory
Fa ilay alina mangina, nefa ny vady tsy ao am-pandriana

Raha mbola variana, nisento sy nitomany
Dia nisy nandona, tany ivelany tany
Toa raiki-tahotra izy ny hamoha, nivadi-po
Ka indro lehilahy no tao, toa endrik’olona vaovao

      Dia nampandrosoiny, ilay nampivadika ny fony
      Ka tonga dia nipetrapetraka, natavitavy resaka
      Feno sangisangy, ny resak’ilay mpamangy
      Na resaka blague io na matoto, tafiditra tao avokoa

Dia nony avy eo, dia nangina aloha ry zareo
Nitsangana rangahy, nanolotra chocolat
Nitohy indray ny korana, nihanafana
Toa nihamaivana tokoa, ny alahelon-dramatoa

Fa tato afara, nivadika ny tantara
Nipaika ilay ora, hifanakalozan’ny rora
Saika hifamihina avy hatrany, dray re ry tany
Fa saingy toa nisalasala, tsy nety tampoka indray rakala

       Tsy nety ho tafita, loza fa nisy nahita
       Satria nivandravandra be ilay sarin-dramose, izay lasa nandeha tournéé
       Nanaja ny voady, ilay saika hanitsakitsa-bady
       F’ilay rangahy kosa niala maina, tsy raikitra ka nangaina.
