Itsasoa lano dago Baionako barraraino: Nik zu zaitut maiteago xoriak bere umiak baino. Aita gutaz oroit dago lanopean gaueraino. Nik zu zaitut maiteago arraintxoek ura baino! Afaria suan dago bero-beroa sarridino. Nik zu zaitut maiteago egur onak sua baino. Izar xuriz mila dago iparretik hegoraino. Nik zu zaitut maiteago ilargiak gaua baino. Lo egizu, egizu lo deskantsuan bihar artio. Nik zu zaitut maiteago gau beltzean loa baino. Orai haurra hor lo dago, Lo egizu, aingerun~o. Nik zu zaitut maiteago zure aitak nihaur baino.

The sea is all fogged up all the way to the pier in Baiona I love you more than birds love their babies. Father is thinking of us under the fog, until night time comes. I love you more than the little fish love the water Dinner is on the stove very hot I love you more than a good log loves the fire Bright stars by the thousand from the north to the south I love you more than the moon loves the night Sleep, sleep, rest until tomorrow I love you more than sleep in the dark night Now the child is asleep sleep, little angel I love you more than your father loves myself.
