Spanish term or phrase: (Zu) sobraito, caminaito, sudaito
En la misma canción "Zu Bailaito" de un juego de fitness/electrocumbia, aparecen estos términos pero me cuesta encontrar un equivalente en inglés. Entiendo que el "zu" es un juego entre el pronombre posesivo "su" y "zu" por "zumba", por lo que quiero mantenerlo en la traducción. Este es el contexto:

EL PRETENDIENTE LLEGO BIEN COLORIN
Y CON ANGUSTIA SE AJUSTABA EL CORBATIN
NI CUENTA SE HABIA DADO
Y YA LO HABIAN CASADO
COMO POR MAGIA EL TIPO VIO SU FIN

DESPUES DEL BESO, LA PARRANDA SE IVA ARMAR
LOS INVITADOS NO QUERIAN ESPERAR
EL SITIO BIEN PRENDIO
SI PA' ESO ES QUE HABIAN IDO
Y SIENDO EL NOVIO LE TOCABA GRITAR (RUMBEAR)

QUE TODO EL MUNDO TIENE...

ZU BAILADITO
ZU PEGAITO
ZUCANTAITO
ZU ZU ZU ZU

**ZU SOBRAITO
ZU CAMINAITO
ZU SUDAITO
ZU ZU ZU ZU***

Desde ya, muchísimas gracias por sus sugerencias!
