Nani, Nani, Nani kere el ijo
el ijo de la madre de tchiko se ago grande
.
Ay, durmite mi alma ke tu padre vyene kon muntcha alegriya
.
Nani, Nani... etc
.
Ay, avrimech, mi dama, arrimech la puerta,
ke vengo kansado de arar las uertas
.
Ay, avrir no vos avro, no venich kansado,
sino ke venich de onde nuevo amor!
.
Translation:
.
Nani (sleep), Nani, Nani is what the son wants,
the mother's son, today just a child, soon a man
.
Oh sleep my soul, if only your father were soon here, in good spirits.
.
Nani, Nani... etc
.
Oh, open up, good woman, open the door to me,
because I come exhausted from ploughing the fields.
.
Oh no, I will not open the door and you are not tired;
in truth you come from a new lover.
.
