Leve Leve (something like «don’t worry») is the expression used by the inhabitants of Sao Tome and Principe to describe their pace of life. As the expression (and the smile of this lady) suggests, people live without major concerns - the land is extremely fertile, nature is generous and in the sea fish abound

«Tu sei Pagliaccio!
Vesti la giubba e la faccia infarina.
La gente paga e rider vuole qua.
E se Arelcchin t'invola Colombina
ridi, Pagliaccio e ognun applaudirà!
Tramuta in lazzi lo spasmo ed il pianto;
in una smorfia il singhiozzo e 'l dolor...
Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto,
ridi del duol che t'avvelena il cor!»
From the opera «Pagliacci», Ruggero Leoncavallo
