Tell me my beauty
what will be our end?
These waters will flow and raise the seas.
Oh river, black river, you’ve embraced us on all sides.
This rare love will take our lives.

The water flows, full with pebbles.
My eyes are filled with tears.
What shall I do with this strange head ?
Will I go abroad with this love in my heart ?

Oh, Black Sea, you’ve embraced us on all sides.
This rare love will take our lives.
