TITLE / LYRICS Imala'y mama imala

Imala'y mama, imala
edin mi sina, mlad Gyorgi,

toy za sin, toy za dushtiria,
i toy za blizka roudnina,
che rasnal Gyorgi, porasnal.
Choudi sa mama y mai sa
na kakuv kiar da go dade,
na kakuv lesen zanaiat.
Dade go mama zlatarche,
zlatarche i kouyumdjiyche,
da lee zlato i srebro,
da prai grimni, prusteni,
za malki momi altuni,
za sgodenitsi - obetsi.
Lial gi e Gyorgi, lial gi e
i trugnal da priprodava,
na putia sreshta kaduni,
na putia sreshta dushteri,
te si na Gyorgi doumaha:
- Gyorgi le, mlado zlatarche,
zlatarche i kouyumdjiyche,
zlato ti gree, ni gree,
toeto litse dvaj gree.
