Here are the lyrics and the translation. I do not know how much you know about Ardit Gjebrea, however he is very well known in Albanian and in the Albanian media as being a very talented and success driven individual. At one point, the public also wanted him to be politically involved but he refused. He has put together many festivals in Albania also.
Kembezbathur ullijnte
barefoot olive trees
brigjeve vetmojne
lone along the banks
asnje lajm, asnje fjale
without any news, without a word
vec zogj qe vijne e shkojne
only birds that come and go
vajza e valave pret
the girl of Valave waits
Ku je, ku je
where are you, where are you
o ender e merguar
oh immigrated dream
malli po pret
i have been longing (lit. longing has been waiting)
dhe loti u tret
and tears have melted
Eja me diellin eja
come with the sun come
eja dhe perpije detin
come and devour the sea
merre boten
take the world
falma qiellin
give me the sky
eja me diellin eja
come with the sun come
eja dhe perpije detin
come and devour the sea
kemi lindur, bashke do vdesim
we have been born, and together we will die
Vajz'e valave pret
girl of Valave is waiting
dhe era flet me detin
and the wind speaks with the sea
permbi zallin e shkrete
over the poor hill
ne heshtje, yjet heshtin
in silence, the stars are silent
Thank you soo much! I am not really familiar with Ardit Gjebrea, a friend introduced a couple of his songs to me , and I liked them a lot. I find it great that he is using many folklore elements in his music, and also has nice lyrics.
Maybe I ask you again for some translation in the future![]()
