Gula ciya ax gula ciyaTe ez helandim ax gula ciyaRengê te çîma tarî bûWiy ez bimirim ax gula ciya
Gul webune bi rengê teKesk û sor zer bû xemla teDilê min ax û nalineGel dinalim li bona te
Ez dengbej im dengê welatKarê min e wez û xebatDilê min li tev dinaleBêjim gulam tu bi xer hat
The rose of mountains ah the rose of mountainsYou melted me, ah the rose of mountainsWhy your colour darkened ?May I die, ah the rose of mountains
The roses flowered with your coloursYour jewellery have become green, red and yellowMy heart sighs and moansAll the time I moan for you
I am a minstrel, homeland's voiceMy task is struggling and workingMy heart always moansI say : my rose, you are welcome
