Bora blows from my homeland,
it brought words from the vine:
“You left, but I did not,
I grew home, at my shrine.”
Bora blows from my homeland,
Leaves in their language spoke:
“Forever, we’ll be green,
we’ve roots in soil like oaks.”…
Bora blows from my homeland,
Home sent letters to me:
“From here, I will not move,
to come and live with thee…”
Bora blows from my homeland,
my heart got burnt in roam…
The Spring gardens in bloom..
- “O boy, do come back home!”
- Translation from Albanian into English
