The ships' white pennants

Greet each other facing West,

Greet each other facing West...

The olive trees in the wind,

The sky's ancient fog

Make butterflies out of green leaves.

From Majorca to Alghero,

The ships' white pennants

Greet each other facing West,

Greet each other facing West...

The moon says every night:

"The seas are slowly dying"

The sun answers back every morning:

"The fires are advancing, voracious

Over the mountains I see".

From Majorca to Alghero

The fires are advancing, voracious

And the seas are slowly dying,

The seas are slowly dying...

Old rumours of the seas,

Old rumours of the seas:

The islands swing on the waves

And, today, they're holding each others hands,

And, today, they're holding each others hands...

A living language that I understand,

For we all speak the same

From Majorca to Alghero...

Ai, la ni na, na ni na la ra ni na...
