Filonzana

Dromi pitzinnu, dromit’anninnia,dromi serenu, de oro sienda!Intro sas venas tuas b’est sa prendachi dae mizas annos galu est bia,

ammentu de cudda rara zeniachi fraigaiat bellos nuraghes:homines ch’istimaiant sas paghes,fizos dilettos de Mama Sardigna.

M’an dadu pro la tenner in cunsignasa pandela issoro preferida:dae babbu a mene est arrividae connota l’an jaju cun bisaju.

Dae tempos antigos est unu raju,sa limba sarda che roca resistit,pro séculos e séculos no ammititpreséntzias istranzas pro padronas.

Romanos e Fenicios fin iconascun Cartàgine e Bisàntziu puru.Issa at cunservadu de segurude dognunu sa pius bella cosa.

In su tempus fiorida che rosaest custa limba faeddada ancora.Totu custu nos mustrat in cust’oras’importàntzia de sas raighinas.

E che Sardos sighimus sas orminasde limba, libertade e idea.Oh fizu meu! su cussizu leade Mereu, poeta de Sardigna:

“Depimus esser fizos de un’insigna,Lìberos, Rispettados, Uguales!”

Nursery rhyme

Sleep, my child, sleep and lull,sleep serenely, gold treasure!Inside your veins there is the jewelthat since thousands of years is still alive,

a memory of that fine ancestrywho built beautiful nuraghes:1men who loved peace,beloved sons of Mother Sardinia.

They gave me, to keep it safe,their favorite flag:from daddy it came to me,also grandpa and great-grandpa knew it.

Since ancient times it’s a wonder,2the Sardinian language endures like a rock,for centuries and centuries it doesn’t admitforeign presences as masters.

Romans and Phoenicians were an emblem,Carthage and Byzantium as well.It certainly conservedthe best of each of them.

Over time it bloomed like a roseand this language is still spoken.All this shows us at this timethe importance of the roots.

And as Sardinians let’s follow the footstepsof language, freedom and ideas.Oh my son! take the adviceof Mereu, poet of Sardinia:

“We must be sons of one ensign,Free, Respected, Equal!”3
