Ixilik ixilik dago
lxil ixilik dago, kaia barrenian
untzi xuri polit bat uraren gainean. (bis)
Goizeko ordu bietan esnatutzen gira
arrantzaliarekin joateko urrutira.
Pasatzen nintzanean zure leihopetik
negarrak irteten dit begi bietatik (bis)
Zergaitik (5 aldiz) negar egin?
Zeruan izarrak dagoz itsaso aldetik. (bis)
Quietly, quietly
Quietly, quietly, on the shore
a beautiful white boat on the water. (repeat)
We wake up at two in the morning
to go far with the fisherman.
When I pass by your window
the tears fall from both eyes. (repeat)
Why (5 times) do I cry?
In the sky there are stars on the sea side. (repeat)
