Written and sung by Frank Bartley. These lyrics are not a literal translation.

Gaye n'gii dezhisesii wii n'moonaa baamaapii

I never got to say good by to you

Gaawiin n'gii gikendsiin geskina wii maajayin

I didnt know you were leaving so soon

Aachigwo g'gaa metsinin baamaapii miinwaa

Ohh how I miss you and

G'gaa tkweshkodaadimi

I will see you when its my time to go
