Amodioa Zoin Den Zoroa

How crazy love is everybody knows. I had a girlfriend but now she going with somebody else. I wish her good luck. I met her at a celebration. She was the most beautiful of all. She smiled at me so I thought I could have her. She told me twice she was mine and I was so happy. I never thought she was lying to me. Now my heart is melting like salt in water. How can I be consoled?

Amodioa zoin den zoroa, mundu guziak badaki.

Nik maiteno bat izaki eta, beste batek eramaki...

Jainko maiteak gerta dezala, enekin baino hobeki!

Azken bestetan egin nituen izarren ezagutzak;

Denen artean ageri ziren, haren begi urdin-beltzak;

Irri pollit bat egin baitzautan,

piztu zauztan esperantzak.

Geroztik ere mintzatu gira, eia nahi ninduenetz...

Harek bietan baietz erranik,

pentsa kontentu intzanez!

Ez nuen uste haren agintza, bethea zela gezurrez.

Orai bihotza urtua daukat, urean gatza bezala;

Izar onaren argien ordain, izigarriko itzala!

Ohoin tzar batek berriki joanik,

nola naiteke kontsola!

Amodioaren Pena

[Amodioaren pena,

oi pena handia.]

Orai ezagutzen dut

zer den haren pena.

Amodioa ez balitz

den bezain krudela oi krudela

Ez niokezu erran maite zutudala.

[Zeluan zunbat izar,

maitia ahal da?]

Zure parerik ene

begietan ez da

Neke da partitzea,

maitea enetzat, oi entzat

Adio erraiten deizut denbora batentzat.

[Nik zuri errana gatik,

maitea adio]

Ez nezazula uken

zuk otoi hastio.

Bena bai bihotzetik

beti amodio amodio

Ni zuria nukezu tunban sar artio.

[Nik badut maitetto bat

oi bena nulako]

Ez da ttipi ez handi,

bai bien arteko

Begia dizu eijer

oro amodio amodio

Bihotzian sartu zaut ez beitzaut elkiko.

Oh my dear mother Basque country. I am sad to be going far away from you. Good-bye my family, good-bye Xiberua. My brother is married and has the home farm so I will have to leave. I’m going to Paris to make my living but I’m already thinking about how soon I’ll be able to come back here.

Andre Madalen, Andre Madalen, half a quarter of oil. The wife gets in debt and later the husband will pay.

One day I was looking for my wife and I was told “she is drunk, don’t pay her any mind.”

My wife knows how to sew and iron but the thing she prefers over all is the white wine in her soup.
