Agur Xiberua
Txirri, Mirri eta Txiribiton
Goodbye Basque Country
Left my place as a young man
I entered Paris full of anger
Hungry in the square and with a heavy head
I needed to live happily
since forever
I miss you
Basque Country.
Goodbye Basque Country,
the most beautiful corner of all places.
Goodbye hometown,
I have my sweetest dreams of you.
From the heart halfway
I call you with a heavy heart.
Since you left me
I live in sadness,
abandoned;
there is no town,
no Paris or anywhere else,
like you.
We stay in beautiful palaces
and take in the cool mountain air
feeling like a fish out of water
I feel like a stranger here
but the cliffs
are singing!
Goodbye Basque Country...
Dream, I go with friends to Atarratze
to spend my last days there
listening to the bird of Orhi sing
may it forgive my sins
oh, Basques
up with the flag of the Basque Country.
Goodbye Basque Country...
