Yalifu (Pelican)

Nuguchile haliñañadibo, haliñañadibo nuguchile
Baba haliñañadibo, nuguchile naha agurababo
Yalifo, yalifo rubay baruna nu ñudunamuga ñein!
Luya weyo, laru beya nau agurababo o nuguchile
Fuyale garabale nau ya agurababo luba machuluguidibo
Machuluguidibo babo, machuluguidibo naha agurababo ya larubeya
Nuguchile haliñañadibo, anagubaraba anaha ya laro
Agurababo, hay baba hay haliñañadibo.
¡hay nuguchilema! Lirum rabouniweyu nau ya
Nito mama hagueinuguchile naha agurababo

Father, where are you, my father?
Father, where are you? I am waiting for you
Pelican, Pelican, give me your wings for me to fly there
The sun sets over the horizon and I am waiting for you, Father
The wind is blowing. I am here and you have still not arrived
You have not arrived, Father. You have not arrived. I am here on the seashore waiting for you
Father, where are you? Out at sea and I am here on the shore
Waiting for you, oh father! Where are you?
Oh, Father! How sad I am here this afternoon
Sister, Mother, where is my father? I am waiting for him.
