ትናንትናን ጥሶ ዛሬን ተንተርሶ
ነገንም ተውሶ አምናንም አፍርሶ
ይመጣል ትዝታሽ ጏዙን አግበስብሶ
ይመጣል ትዝታሽ ጏዙን አግበስብሶ

ፍቅርንስ ሸኘሁት ወጥቼ እስከ ደጅ
መውደድን ሸኘሁት ወጥቼ እስከ ደጅ
ማባረር ያቃተኝ ትዝታን ነው እንጅ
ማባረር ያቃተኝ ትዝታን ነው እንጅ

ጎን ለጎን ሲሆን ፍቅር ነው ደስታ
አበሳ አስቆጣሪው የተለዩ ለታ
አልገባኝም እኔ ምንድን ነው ትዝታ
አልገባኝም እኔ ምንድን ነው ትዝታ

ትዝታ ነው አሉን የሀሳብ መርከቡ
ትዝታ ነው አሉን የጭንቀት መርከቡ
ማራገፊያውማ እኔ ነኝ ወደቡ
ማራገፊያውማ እኔ ነኝ ወደቡ

ምንኛ ባጠረ እድሜው የፍቅር
መዝገበ ቃላቱ ትዝታ ባይኖር

የትዝታን ዳገት ወጣሁት ተክዤ
የትዝታን ዳገት ወጣሁት ተክዤ
በእጄ ምናምኑን በልቤ አንቺን ይዤ
በእጄ ምናምኑን በልቤ አንቺን ይዤ

የምትራመዱ እንደተመቻችሁ
አጅሬ ትዝታ ያልደረሰባችሁ
እስኪ አውሱኝ ለኔ ደህና ልብ ያላችሁ
እስኪ አውሱኝ ለኔ ደህና ልብ ያላችሁ

በልቼ እርቦኛል ጠጥቼ ጠምቶኛል
ሌሊት እየመጣ እንቅልፍ ይነሳኛል
ጠላቴ ትዝታን ማን ሰው ያስጥለኛል
ጠላቴ ትዝታን ማን ሰው ያስጥለኛል

Tezeta

In the past, I traversed the plains with you,
And unburdened my soul,
But its memories return to haunt me still,
Your face embedded deep within my gaze,

I have neglected love for you, my darling,
I have neglected affection for you, my darling,
But the desolation burns me, for it is your memory,
The desolation burns me, for it is your memory,

When we were together, love brought only joy,
But now you are gone, only anger remains,
I cannot understand, my love, why you have forsaken me,
I cannot understand, my love, why you have forsaken me,

Memories, they say, are the ships of thought,
Memories, they say, are the ships of sorrow,
But I am their captain, and I will guide them to port,
I am their captain, and I will guide them to port,

How much time have we lost to love,
If not for the memories that linger still?

I have planted the seed of memory,
I have planted the seed of memory,
In my hand I hold our covenant, in my heart I cherish you,
In my hand I hold our covenant, in my heart I cherish you,

As you wander, far from me,
May my memory never reach you,
Until you remember me, and return to me, my love,
Until you remember me, and return to me, my love,

I have eaten and been satisfied, I have drunk and been merry,
But as night falls, sleep eludes me,
And the memories of you, my love, torment me,
And the memories of you, my love, torment me,

OhhhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhh
OhhhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhh
OhhhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhh
OhhhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhh
