Lyrics
(Basque folk song)
Loa loa txuntxurun berde
Loa loa masusta
Aita gurea Gazteizen da
Ama manduan artuta
Aita gurea Gazteizen da
Ama manduan artuta
Loa loa txuntxurun berde
Loa loa masusta
English Translation – Sleep, Sleep Txuntxurun Berde
Sleep, sleep, txuntxurun berde*
Sleep, sleep blackberry,
Our father’s gone to Vitoria,
Carrying our mother on his mule.
Our father’s gone to Vitoria,
Carrying our mother on his mule.
Sleep, sleep, txuntxurun berde*
Sleep, sleep blackberry.
