ግጥም · Lyrics (English)
[Chorus]
ተው ልመድ ገላዬ… ገላዬ
Come now, get used to it, my body… my body
ሰው ልመድ ገላዬ
Get used to others, my body
ትቶህ የሄደን ሰው ገላዬ / አትበል ከለላዬ
The one who left you behind, don't call them "my shelter"
መውደድን ለራቀ ገፍቶ ለሄደ ሰው… ገላዬ
Love for someone who pushed away and left… my body
ደግሞም የከዳህን በቃህ አታስታውሰው
and the one who betrayed you: enough, don't remember them
የፍቅር ስሜቱ ካልሆነ አቻ ላቻ… ገላዬ
If love's feeling isn't matched, equal to equal… my body
ለሷም የጇን ይስጣት አታስብ ለብቻ
may she get what her hands have earned; don't brood alone
እንግዲህ የሩቅ ሰው ተጓዥ አልናፍቅም
From now on I won't long for a faraway traveller
ቢጤዬን መፈለግ ሻይሻል አይቀርም
seeking my own equal is bound to be better
የሄደን ሸኝቶ መናፈቅ መጨነቅ
Seeing off the one who left, then longing and fretting
ተው ልመድ ገላዬ በል ለራስህ እወቅ
come now, get used to it, my body; know it for yourself
ተማጽኛት ካልቻልኩ በምስኪኑ አንጀቴ… ገላዬ
If pleading with my poor heart could not win her… my body
ትዝታ ሲያደክመው ባቶ ሰውነቴ
while memories wear down my hollow body
አይታኝ እንደዘበት ከጨከነ ሆዷ… ገላዬ
If she looked at me as nothing, her heart turned cruel… my body
እርሜን ላውጣ እንግዲ ካልቀረ መሄዷ
let me swear her off, since her leaving is certain
ወንጭሬም ይታጠፍ ይሰቀል ከማማ
Let my sling be folded and hung up on the watchtower
ማፍቀር ካልታደልኩኝ ልቤ ከተቀማ
if I'm not blessed to love, if my heart was taken
በመሄዷም ቆርጦ ልቤም ይደላደል
Let my heart accept her going and settle down
ከማዘን በስተቀር እንግዲህ ምን ይበል
what else can it say now, but grieve?
ጭር ካለ ቤቴ ከተዘጋ ታዛው… ገላዬ
Since my house is silent and its porch is shut… my body
አላምደው ገላዬን መደብና አጎዛ
let me get my body used to the bare bench and sheepskin
አመድ አፋሽ አርጋኝ ከከዳችው እጄን… ገላዬ
She left me sweeping ashes, she let go of my hand… my body
እንግዲ ሰው በቃኝ ሸኘኋት ወዳጄን
enough of people now; I have seen my love off
ሆዴም ተስፋ ቁረጥ ዓይኔም መዋተትክን
Heart, give up hope; eyes, stop your restless searching
ከርሞ ያለፈ ፍቅር ካልበረደ አይሰክን
a love that lingered past its time won't settle till it cools
አንቁም ከሸንጎ ፍርድ አንደራደር
Let us not go to the elders' court or bargain over judgment
የሷ የነበረ ገላ ለምዷል ብቻ ማደር
the body that was hers has learned to sleep alone
