L’Afriche e je lontane a viodile de luneAfrica is far away, seen from the moon,
Passe l’eternitâtEternity goes by.
Troi che tu vâs al mârRoad, you that lead to the sea,
Lasssimi caLet me down here.
E sfile une bandiere, salacor chê vere,A flag passes by, may be it's the true one.
Che e vent la fortune,It's selling fortune,
E vent ancje la luneIt's selling the moon too:
Ce mai tu comprarâs …What will you buy?

Cuant che e ven jù sere, co tu vâs a cjaseWhen the night falls, when you come back home,
Vive la libertâtHurrah for freedom!
Cui si contente al mûrWell pleased man is well dead man
E no lu sa.And he doesn't even know it.
Daspò de aventure e passe ancje la pôreAfter the adventure, fear is over.
