When evening falls so slowlyand the moon climbs up the mountainI lie down to sleep, but sleep won’t comea tear slips from my eye

From Pogradec, the first partinga parting that still hurtsI cast a glance as I was leavingat the shore, the waves upon the lake

High up in Plloçë, at the crossingFor a moment I felt banishedhave I taken the road of no return?My heart aches, my strength fails me
