Your protection and your friendship
Were always desired
And the great love of my heart
Stories and songs
Old as the mountains
Strong and brave with age

Chorus:
Good-bye to the days
That were turning so lightheartedly
Good-bye to the days that were
Good-bye to the night
Turning on the first hour
Good-bye to the days that were

At the sight of the sea
And the sun on the seashore
And the great love of my heart
Were stories and Balar
In three Mici Gorra
Ancient islands like a dream

(Chorus)

I had a sweetheart from summer up to winter
My dearest love

(Chorus)
