Amus a fàchere brullas a su 'entu:
We’ll play jokes on the Wind:
'che lu serramus intro 'e un aposentu,
we’ll close him within a room,
ma promitimus de lu liberare
but we promise to release him
si nos azudat totus a bolare.
if he helps all of us to fly.
Amus a pònnere arcos de cariasa
We’ll put branches of cherry
e murichessa e fozas chentu 'e rosa
and of mulberry, and a hundred rose petals
in sas ventanas e in s’oru de sa janna,
around the windows and on the door's frame,
amus a fàchere una festa manna.
we’ll make a great party.
Lu bies fiza me’
Do you see, my daughter,
sos sònnios nostros como andan a pe’,

you are a queen and I’m a king.
Amus a mùrghere s’ànima e su coro,
We’ll milk the soul and the heart,
su ch’inde bessit balet prus de s’oro,
what springs out of them is worth more than gold,
amus a pàschere sònnios e disizos
we’ll pasture dreams and desires,
chi pothan crèschere tèneros che lizos.
that may grow as tender as lilies.
Amus a pònnere prantas de ispera,
We’ll put plants of hope,
'che las ponimus in totu sa carrera,
we are putting them along the whole street,
amus a chèrrere paches in totube,
we’ll want peace everywhere,
benzat su sole e ch’essat custa nube!
come the sun and go away this cloud!
Lu bies fiza me’

lu bies fiza me’

tue ses reina e deo so re.
