Lyrics:

Na khelav, na gilavav,
Mi sudbina me ?alinav,
So kerd?um e Devleske,
Man terne tele ke peske.
Chorus:
Abre Devla, so kere,
Me sem terno man ma tu tele.
O tekije me pird?um,
Mange leko na rakljum,
Nasvalipe baro isi man,
Lestar terno me ka merav.
Du?a me (da) ka tsidav,
Amane ti a?avav,
Sa o Roma ne ka pijen,
Pale mande te na roven.
Translation:
I don’t dance, I don’t sing,
My fate is sad,
What did I do, God,
That you took me so young?
What did you do, God?
I am too young for you to take me..

I walk near the mosques,
I can’t find a cure for myself,
I am very sick,
From this I will die young.
My soul will die,
I will depart,
And the Roma won’t drink,
Behind my back they won’t cry.
