1.Nete te gjata, dite pa diell
1.Long nights, sunless days
Permbi sy çarçafi nxinte
Dark headscarf down to the eyes
Pyesnin o shoqet e mia
My girlfriends would ask
C’ngjyre valle kishte liria
What would the color of freedom be.
Eshte e kuqe une ju thoja
It is red, I'd answer them,
Porsi prushi i zemres sone
Like the burning embers of our hearts.
Eshte e kuqe une ju thoja
It is red, I'd answer them,
Porsi prushi i zemres sone
Like the burning embers of our hearts.
Ne çdo prag, ne çdo kasolle
At every door, at every hut
Hynit, dilnit porsi yll.
You went in and out like stars
“ilegale” ju dhane emrin
The illegals you were called
Vitet qe s’harrohen kurre.
By times that will never be forgotten.
2.Netet s’qene aq te gjata
2.The nights were not that long
I shkurtonin krismat tona
Our firing shots made them shorter.
Tak tak tak, zgjonte kaq endrra
The “tok, tok, tok” woke up many dreams
Hapej porta, hapej zemra
The door got open, the heart got open.
Hyni bija, ju paste nena
“Enter precious daughter of mother,
Zjarrin ndezur mbajme per ju
We keep the fire burning for you”.
Hyni bija, ju paste nena
“Enter precious daughter of mother,
Zjarrin ndezur mbajme per ju
We keep the fire burning for you”.
Ne çdo prag, ne çdo kasolle
At every door, at every hut
Hynit, dilnit porsi yll.
You went in and out like stars
“ilegale” ju dhane emrin
The illegals you were called
Vitet qe s’harrohen kurre.
By times that will never be forgotten.
