English Translation
Faraway, nobody speaks of the light of the stars
All our prayers, all our emotions
Rai ra ra rai tura
Though we try to cast it into the sky lit by the lunar eclipse.
Our wishes were lost in the ceaseless rain
Rai ra ra rai tura
Carry our dreams, unknown butterfly
Carry your love to our unfinished homeland
Raising its eyes only at the wind is Artuqa's butterfly
Aa, On this evening, the night of wings that will not fly
It is long
Rai ra ra rai tura rai ra ra rai tura
Faraway, nobody speaks of the island's past
All our prayers, all our rage
Rai ra ra rai tura
Though we tried to cast them upon that silver ship
Our wishes were lost in the ceaseless ocean
Rai ra ra rai tura
Carry our dreams,unknown God
Carry your love to our unfinished homeland
Gazing only at the wind are the people of Artuqa
Aa, On this evening, the night of captives
It is long
