Euskal unibertsitatea
Arnasa hartu beharra dugu
eta ireki atea
arrainak ura eta euskarak
bere unibertsitatea.
Aspertu gara beti ibiltzen
suge narrastien gisa,
hegada jaso eta nahi dugu
arrano libreak izan.
Zimentu zaharrak baditu baina
teilatua falta zaio,
euskara ez zen mendi artean
galdurik hiltzeko jaio
Hirietako lainoa beltza
mendian zuri elurra
etorkizunak eskatzen digu
harrapatzeko gailurra.
Pausorik pauso bagoaz
gure unibertsitateraino
eskuopekorik ez dugu behar
berez zor zaiguna baino.
Basque University
We need to take a breath
and open the door
fish, water, and Basque
its own universe.
We're tired of always walking
like snakes in the grass,
we want to rise up and be
free eagles.
It has old foundations but
it's missing a roof,
Basque wasn't born
to die lost in the mountains.
The city's black fog
and the white snow on the mountain
the future demands of us
to seize the peak.
Step by step we go
toward our university
we don't need a handout
more than what we deserve.
