Angelit, formerly known as Angelin tytöt (Aŋŋel nieiddat), is a Finnish Sámi folk music group formed by sisters Ursula and Tuuni Länsman in 1989. However, the history of the group can be traced back to 1982 when Eino Ukkonen, Ursula and Tuuni Länsman's Finnish teacher, took them along with some classmates to sing at a Sámi festival held at Utsjoki. In 1987 the group released their first non-commercial tape, recorded together with Mari Boine.
In 1989 one of the members of the group was killed in a car accident, and subsequently the group broke up. Ursula and Tuuni went on and established a group that was called "Angelin tytöt" or "girls of Angeli", named after Angeli, the village they grew up in, located in Inari in Northern Finland.
The group changed its name to Angelit in 1997 due to the problem of many different translations of "Angelin tytöt".

Angelita
by: Umberto TozziStavo meglio io
zingaro di cuori e di malinconia
se tornasse mia vita d'odissea
non rinuncerò e no e no e
Angelita dammi vita e si asciugherà
quello scoglio dove grande mi voglio
in libertà
E sarà così terra di ripresa
dai rifiuti a mille notti magiche
Ti ritroverò figlia di un'idea
e non ti lascerò e no e no e no
Angelita dammi vita di sole che hai
ma riposa da chica en esposa
diventerai
Angelita dammi vita d'amore o chissà
tra la vita hermosa e bonita
mi incanterai
e così libero di essere sincero
se mi va un po' un po'
e e e nooo
Angelita dammi vita di sole che hai
ma riposa da chica en esposa diventerai
Angelita dammi vita d'amore o chissà
tra la vita hermosa e bonita
