Can someone please translate to english

Zonja dhe zoterinj, lidhni rripin e sigurimit

1, 2, 3 hop

Do fluturoj, do fluturoj
larg nga ty do te vazhdoj
me djalin e sherbimit te avionit
do ta ftoj,
ne party do te shkoj
naten do kaloj
do fluturoj
sic ti ma ke punuar
ashtu do ta punoj,
sic ti me ke harruar
ashtu do te harroj
se di ca do te punoj.
Ma kane thene
qe ty femrat ste lene
e di mire ti
per nje fjale te harroj
e di mire ti
kur me nxeh te godas
e di mire ti
sa kam bere une per ty
e di mire ti
une te iki nga duart
e di mire ti
do fluturoj
e di mire ti

(refreni)
Hej ti sot nga larg mos me karko
nga celulari mu largo
sot nuk jam vetem me beso
hajde neser me tako
Ti sot nga larg mos me karko
nga celulari mu largo
sot nuk jam vetem me beso
neser me tako

1, 2, 3 hop

Hej ti puci vogel
a e di qe nuk jam loder
hej ti puci vogel
a e di qe sjam e vogel
hej ti puci vogel
a e di ca do te punoj

I'll probably make a big fool of myself, but I take this as an exercise

Zonja dhe zoterinj, lidhni rripin e sigurimit
...Sonja & the gentlemen, bound up securely

1, 2, 3 hop

Do fluturoj, do fluturoj
...I want to fly (2x)
larg nga ty do te vazhdoj
...far away from you I want to keep moving
me djalin e sherbimit te avionit
...with the guy from the airport service(?)
do ta ftoj,
...I want to invite you
ne party do te shkoj
...to a party I will go to
naten do kaloj
...i want to spend the night
do fluturoj
...I want to fly
sic ti ma ke punuar
...as you have done to me
ashtu do ta punoj,
...that is how i want to do to you
sic ti me ke harruar
...as you have forgotten me
ashtu do te harroj
...that is how i want to forget you
se di ca do te punoj.
...I don't know what I will do to you (?)
Ma kane thene
...they have told me
qe ty femrat s'te lene
...that your wife hasn't left you
e di mire ti
...as you well know
per nje fjale te harroj
...for a word that I forget (?)
e di mire ti
... as you well know
kur me nxeh te godas
...when with heat(?) I hit you (with anger?)
e di mire ti
...as you well know
sa kam bere une per ty
...what I have done for you
e di mire ti
...you know very well
une te iki nga duart
...I escape from being dunked(?)
e di mire ti
...as you well know
do fluturoj
...I want to fly
e di mire ti
...as you well know

(refreni)
Hej ti sot nga larg mos me karko
...today you don't have to search for me very far (i'm near by today?)
nga celulari mu largo
...I get out of prison
sot nuk jam vetem me beso
...today i believe i'm not alone
hajde neser me tako
...come tomorrow to meet me

Ti sot nga larg mos me karko
nga celulari mu largo
sot nuk jam vetem me beso
neser me tako

1, 2, 3 hop

Hej ti puci vogel
...hey, you little ...(?)
a e di qe nuk jam loder
...do you know i'm not a toy?
hej ti puci vogel
...hey, you little ...(?)
a e di qe sjam e vogel
...do you know i'm not small?
hej ti puci vogel
...hey, you little...(?)
a e di ca do te punoj
...do you know what i'm going to do to you?

Typical Albanian lyric. After translation it remains as mysterious as before. I guess the exercise hasn't worked out very well.

that is how i want to do to you
sic ti me ke harruar
as you have forgotten me

that is how i want to forget you

Ma kane thene

qe ty femrat s'te lene
that girls don't leave you alone
e di mire ti
you know well
per nje fjale te harroj
for one word i'd forget you

une te iki nga duart
i left from your hands
e di mire ti

Hej ti sot nga larg mos me karko
hey you, don't search from me from afar
nga celulari mu largo
don't call my cell
sot nuk jam vetem me beso
today, believe me, i'm not alone
hajde neser me tako
...come tomorrow to meet me

1, 2, 3 hop

Hej ti puci vogel
...hey, you little (guy)
a e di qe nuk jam loder
...do you know i'm not a toy
hej ti puci vogel
...hey, you little (guy)
a e di qe sjam e vogel
do you know that i am not young
hej ti puci vogel
...hey, you little (guy)
a e di ca do te punoj
...do you know what i'm going to do to you

not bad cortom, good job, some errors but it wasn't really your fault, the text was rather confusing

Thank you very much!

This translation business is fascinating....

Now that I've seen Balkaneuro's translation, I'm rather pleased with my own attempt, but it strikes me how even one or two words in a sentence can make a BIG difference in understanding! Especially in such short sentences.

Oh, boy, that title! I goofed up that one really bad. But in a funny way, if I say so myself.
