Verse 1
Ashandore soufrait, Mountain-Guardian mind-strong Cunning Wisdom
No'ma(mi) cuebiyar, To-you I-give my-heart I give you my heart
Avrunya fel ravid fonnenye Let-us our tear-down barriers Let us tear down each other's walls
Verse 2
Puniya tawele May fate-threads May the threads of our fate
Gadhavya fel maranya Intertwined our destiny Be intertwined in a noble braid
Kiseri trewele Noble braid All that I seek
No'noup mah but [I] only seek Is the warmth of your touch

Domash warm A raging sun
Kutya a'asa Feeling from you Is born from our love

Fel mashi tasu Our love makes
