Sun inside and Sun outside,

Sun, come inside,

Village rooster started crowing,

Sun, come inside.

Whether dawned or whether dawning,

Sun, come inside.

Borjghali arms are pouring warmth,

Sun, come inside.

I will sew a red dress for you,

Sun, come inside.

One whirling with desire,

Sun come inside!

all weapons tired,

Sun, come inside.

Sun laid down and bore the moon,

Sun, come inside.

Our son is born,

Sun, come inside.

Midwife thinks it’s a girl.

Sun, come inside.

The baby’s father is not at home,

Sun, come inside,

He’s in the city looking for a cradle,

Sun, come inside.

A white satin dress will suit the father,

Sun, come inside.

Horse racing and horse riding,

Sun, come inside.

Laying down and looking at the sky,

Sun, come inside.

Come through the sidebuns,

Sun, come inside.

I will slaughter a lambing sheep for you,

Sun, come inside!
