Lyrics and translation Betty G - Ay Zendro

Ay Zendro

የታል በበጎ በክፉ ጊዜ፥ ፍጹም ላንለያይ ቃል የገባነው ያኔ፥
ዘንድሮ ምን የተለየ ፥ነገር ተከሰተ፥ እንዲህ ልብ ያሸፈተ ፥
"መጋጨት ያለ ነገር" ነው ትለኝ አልነበረ፥ በኛም አልተጀመረ፥

የኔ መስነፍ ፥ ያንተም መሰላቸት፥
እኛን አለያየን ፥ የሁለታችንንም ልብ ሰበረ፥
"ፍቅር ይታገሳል፥ ደሞም ቸርነት ያደርጋል፥ እንዲሁ አይወድቅም ከቶ"
(ፍቅር ፍቅር ፍቅር)
ስናበላሽ እንዲህ እያልክ፥ ትመልሰኝ አልነበር፥ ለምን ልብህ ዛለ ቶሎ፥

(ፍቅር ፍቅር ፍቅር)
አይ ዘንድሮ ፥ ጥሬ ዞሮ፥
አልበሰልንም፥ አዋቂ እኛን ብሎ፥

ፍቅር አይታበይም፥ በደልንም አይቆጥርም፥ በመለያየት አያምንም፥
ፍቅር ይታገሳል፥ ደሞም ቸርነት ያደርጋል፥ አይወድቅም ከቶ፥
(ፍቅር ፍቅር ፍቅር)
ፍቅር ተስፋ ያደርጋል፥ ፀንቶም ይቆማል፥

(ፍቅር ፍቅር ፍቅር)
አይ ዘንድሮ (አይ ዘንድሮ) ፥ ጥሬ ዞሮ (ጥሬ ዞሮ)፥
አልበሰልንም፥ (አዋቂ) አዋቂ እኛን ብሎ፥

Ay Zendro

Always by your side through good and bad times, I swore I'd never change my word, my Zendro,
Why is there a change, what happened, to make my heart break like this,
Saying "there's nothing to fight about" doesn't work for me, we didn't start it,

My accuser, you too resemble them,
They have separated us, broken both of our hearts,
"Love can be forgotten, but the memories remain, it will never go away completely"
(Love, love, love)
When we were together, you used to say these things, but now you've changed, why is your heart so quick to forget,

(Love, love, love)
Oh Zendro, turn back quickly,
Listen to us, the wise, he tells us,

Love cannot be counted, it does not keep a tally, it does not believe in separation,
Love can be forgotten, but the memories remain, it will never go away completely,
(Love, love, love)
Love gives hope, and stands firm,

(Love, love, love)
Oh Zendro (Oh Zendro), turn back quickly (turn back quickly),
Listen to us, (the wise) the wise, he tells us,
