C’kane malet qe gjemojne
What are the mountains roaring about
Ke po presin valle
Who might they be looking for
Ibe Palikuqi vjen o me yll ne balle.
Ibe Palikuqi is coming with a star on her forehead.
Pushke e zemer ka barot
Her rifle and heart are gunpowder
Syri nuk i lot
The eye does not tear
Ibe moj sokolesha jone
Ibe, our falcon woman
Thone Ibja po lufton
They say Ibe is fighting
Maleve me bore
Up in snowy mountains
Krah per krah me shoket partizane.
Side by side with partisan comrades.
Kur nis beteja zeri i saj gjemon
When the battle is up her voice resounds
Mbi armiq me maliher qellon.
She fires on the foes with Mannlicher.
Mal me mal, shteg me shteg
Mountain by mountain, path by path
Luftoi me trimeri
She fought with bravery
Yll ne mes u vra o per liri
A star, shot and fallen for the freedom.
C’kane malet qe gjemojne
What are the mountains roaring about
Ke percjellin valle
Who might they be seeing off
Ibe Palikuqin-o plumbi c’e ka marre.
Ibe Palikuqi was picked by the bullet.
C’e ka marre plumbi-o

E ka marre ne balle

Hakun s’ia leme ne pa ia marre.
We can’t live without avenging her
Thone Ibja po lufton
They say Ibe is fighting
Maleve me bore
Up in snowy mountains
Krah per krah me shoket partizane.
Side by side with partisan comrades.
