TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:

My nightingale, my sonorous friend,
You fly, fly to a distant native land.
There beyond the blue seas, for my dark-eyed
At the sad night hour
You sing a song about me!
At the sad night hour
Sing a song about me!

At the evening hour, at the sad hour
Sing a song about me!
At the evening hour, at the sad hour
Sing a song about me!

Don't let her yearn there,
Don't look at the road from her window.
Let her all alone in silence
think about me,
And wait for me back
in native lands, my dove!

My nightingale, my sonorous friend
You fly, fly to a distant land native.
There beyond the blue seas of my dark-eyed
At the sad night hour
You sing a song about me!

At the evening hour, at the sad hour
Sing a song about me!
At the evening hour, at the sad hour
Sing a song about me!
