Dena za voda otiva

Dena za voda otiva,
Gyorgi poudiria vurveshe,

Gyorgi na Dena doumashe:
-Deno mo,mome houbava,
shu li ma zemesh Deno mo,
Dena na Gyorgi doumashe:
-Nema ta zema,Gyorge le,
as she si zema Koleto,
to znae s gaydi da sviri,
kouga na houro zusviri,
gouliamo houro stavushi,
malou i gouliamo igrae,
dou siaka mouma i iargen,
do biala Dena dour dvama.
