Paroles et traduction Gatibu - Doniene

Doniene

Urtiek daukon egunik luzeenien
Ai! arratsalde partien sue piztean
Kolorez jasten da euskaldunen gaba
Zorixona dago eta, su inguruen.
Gaztiek saltoka ta zaharrak barreka
Izen zirenak eta izengo direnak
Eskutik heldute sueri bueltaka
Biribilketa bat da gure bizixe.
Ha, ha! sue bihotzak garbitzen
Ha, ha! Keie arimek astintzen
Ha, ha! Itzalen dantza bakien
Ha, ha! Ha, ha...!
Eguzkixe badoa unibertsoan
Eta kantu zahar batien hau entzuten da:
"Txarrak eroan eta onak ekarri,
Zorixon hutsa izen daigun beti".
Ez da inor falta, zuek bakarrik
Lagunek kantuen dagoz,
Eta pentsetan ni...
Ez zagozenori hamar mile mosu
Zeuentzat kantuek da San Juan gau hau!
Ha, ha! Sue bihotzak garbitzen
Ha, ha! Keie arimek astintzen
Ha, ha! Itzalen dantza bakien

Doniene

Every day I remember that long afternoon
Oh! on the eve of the party under the full moon
The night of the Basques glows with vibrant hues
And joy fills the air, around the bonfire.
The young leap and dance, the old laugh and sing
Those who were and those who will be
Joined hand in hand, circling the fire
Our lives are a continuous journey.
Oh! oh! The fire cleanses our hearts
Oh! oh! The smoke stirs our souls
Oh! oh! The enchanting dance of the shadows
Oh! oh! Oh, oh...!
The sun travels across the universe
And an ancient song echoes through the air:
"May the bad be taken away, and the good return,
May true happiness always be our fate".
No one is missing, except you,
My friends are singing,
And I'm in my thoughts...
Ten thousand kisses to those who are not here
For you, this song and this Saint John's Eve!
Oh! oh! The fire cleanses our hearts
Oh! oh! The smoke stirs our souls
Oh! oh! The enchanting dance of the shadows
