Murni chanicha
Muro vurdon kaj muklemle nevorro
Malademle phurano phurano thaj saphago
Me ni hrovava me samo asava akana Devla so me kakerav?
Murni charicha kaj muklemla nevorri maladilemla
phurani phurani tajsa chindi
Murre romni kaj muklhemla nevorri malademla
phurani phurani thaj nasavali
Me ni hrovava me samo asava akana Devla so me kakerav?
Murre shavorren kaj muklemele biandilen
Malademlen phurane phurane thaj sine me
Me ni hrovava me samo asava akana Devla so me kakerav?
Translation:
My car, I left it when it was new
I found it old, old and broken
But I do not cry, just smile now, God what will I do?
My tent, I let it new
I found it old, old and torn
My wife, I let her young
I found her old, old and sick
But I do not cry, just smile now, God what will I do?
My children, I let them newborns
I found them old, old as I
