    Default Meda - Dritė e terr

    I understand most of it - I think - but I need help with the refrain.

    Tė prita, tė prita,
    .. I waited, I waited (or: while waiting..)
    nė sy s'kisha gjumė.
    .. in my eyes there was (past tense?) no sleep
    Ndryshė po mė rreh zemra
    .. My heart beats differently
    kur ti vjen te unė.
    .. when you come to me

    Te prita te prita
    .. While waiting
    oret ishin t'gjata.
    .. the hours were long
    kur erdhe te unė
    .. When you arrived by me
    mu ndryshu a nata
    .. the night for me changed

    ref:
    Dritė, dritė, kur mė shikon,
    .. Light, light, when you look at me
    terr terr kur mungon.
    .. dark, dark when you are away
    Dritė e terr jeta mu ba
    .. Light & dark life to me ???
    qysh spo tė vjen pėr mu gjynah
    .. [I think it should be: qysh po tė vjen pėr mu gjynah]
    .. How can sin come to me ????

    Tė prita, tė prita
    .. While waiting, while waiting
    kam vujt pėr njė fjal.
    .. ?? I need/long for a word ??
    Kur ti vjen tė unė
    .. When you come to me
    vetėn e ndi tė gjallė
    .. I feel myself alive

    Dritė, dritė kur mė shikon,
    terr, terr, kur mungon
    Dritė e terr jeta mu ba
    qysh spo tė vjen pėr mu gjynah.

    Tė prita, tė prita // I waited, I waited (for you)
    nė sy s'kisha gjumė // in my eyes there was no sleep (yes past tense)
    Ndryshė po mė rreh zemra
    .. My heart beats differently
    kur ti vjen te unė.
    .. when you come to me

    Te prita te prita // i waited (for you), i waited

    .. dark, dark when you are away
    Dritė e terr jeta mu ba // my life became light and dark
    qysh spo tė vjen pėr mu gjynah // (sentence is right) it means: don't you feel bad/ for me?[how don't = qysh s'po] you feel pity for me? *gheg dialect btw

    Tė prita, tė prita
    .. While waiting, while waiting
    kam vujt pėr njė fjal // i suffered just to receive one word (from you)
    Kur ti vjen tė unė
    .. When you come to me
    vetėn e ndi tė gjallė
    .. I feel myself alive

    good job overall cortom
