Literal translation

Chorus:
Farewell and goodnight to you,
Goodnight and blessings upon you;
Let me wish health always to be with you,
Goodnight to you and blessings upon you.

1
There is not a musical instrument that is played,
That would awaken thoughts of joy in my breast,
As does songs from the mouths of the girls;
Goodnight and blessings upon you.

2
A voice to my heart is the note of the songs,
Embracing comfort, young people singing;
A glimpse of calm in the days of my youth;
Happiness that will always be with you.

3
Source of water in the spring well,
Language of our forefathers, essence of elegance;
And gentle relief from the distress in my mind,
When a verse from the glenn comes to mind.

4
The sun does not set tonight for many,
With the melodious tunes and verses,
And there will be stories of great pleasure,
That tells them that we are united.

5
Distance over oceans will not separate us,
Goodwill of kinship the bonds that entwine;
Maintaining the happiness left by the blessing;
Good night to you and blessings upon you.

6
Our lot has fallen in a deceitful world;
Despite that, goodness is with us;
We will live in good hope;
Good night to you and blessings upon you.
