Goodbye Basque

Herrikoiak

Agur Euskal

Gazte gaztetandikan
herritik kanpora,
estranjeria aldean
pasa det denbora. (Bis)
Herrialde guztietan
toki onak badira,
baina bihotzak dio:
"Zoaz Euskal Herrira". (Bis)

Agur nere bihotzeko
amatxo maitea!
Laster etorriko naiz
kontsola zaitea. (Bis)
Jaungoikoak, ba, nahi du
ni urez joatea;
ama zertarako da
negar egitea? (Bis)

Lur maitea hemen uztea
da negargarria.
Hemen gelditzen dira
ama ta herria. (Bis)
Urez noa ikustera,
bai, mundu berria;
oraintxe, bai, naizela,
errukigarria. (Bis)

Goodbye Basque

In the young age
from the town to outside,
in the land of strangers
the time passes. (Repeat)
In all countries
there are good places,
but the heart says:
"Go to the Basque Country". (Repeat)

Goodbye to my dear
beloved mother!
I will come back soon
to comfort you. (Repeat)
God, why does he want
me to go with water;
why does a mother
have to mourn? (Repeat)

Leaving this beloved land
is sad.
Here remain
mother and country. (Repeat)
I go to see water,
yes, a new world;
now, yes, I am
compassionate. (Repeat)
