Gelem, gelem, lungone dromensa
Maladilem bahktale Romensa (2x)
Ai Romalen, ai Chavalen (2x)
A romalen katar tumen aven,
E tsarensa bahtale dromensa
A romalen katar tumen aven,
cahkrensa bokhale chavensa?
Vi man sas ek bari familiya
Murdadas la e kali legiya
Aven mansa sa lumniake
Kai putaile e Romane droma
Ake vriama, usti Rom akana,
Men khutasa misto kai kerasa
Ai, Romalen, ai, Chavalen
Opre Roma, isi vahkt akana
Usten sa e sundalesqe Roma. |
Gelem gelem
I went, I went on long roads
I met happy Roma
O Roma, O fellow Roma
O Roma where do you come from,
With tents on happy roads
O Roma where do you come from,
With all these tents and hungry children?
I once had a great family,
The Black Legions murdered them
Come with me Roma from all the world
For the Romani roads have opened
Now is the time, rise up Roma now,
We will rise high if we act
O Roma, O fellow Roma
Get up, brother, look, it is time now
Get up all the Roma of the world.
