(Iparragirre)

Gazte gaztetandikan herritik kanpora, estranjeri aldean pasa det denbora. Herrialde guztietan toki onak ba dira, baina bihotzak dio "zoaz Euskalherrira". Agur nere bihotzeko amatxo maitea! Laster etorriko naiz kontsola zaitea. Gertabeharrak nahi du ni urez joatea; ama, zertarako da negar egitea? Lur maitea hemen uztea da negargarria. Hemen gelditzen dira ama ta herria. Urez noa ikustera, bai, mundu berria; oraintxe, bai, naizela errukigarria.

Since I was very young I left my home and country. In foreign lands I have spent my time. All lands are good places to be in but my heart tells me: go back to Euskalherria. Goodbye, my beloved mother, I'll come back soon to lighten your heart. Destiny wants me to leave by sea, so what's the use, mother, of crying? To leave my dear country is something that breaks my heart. Here shall remain mother and country. I'm leaving by sea to experience new worlds. Now I really am worthy of pity.
