Fuq it-triq ta Birkirkara Int u sejjer San Giljan
Hemm salib fuq il-Kolonna Musbieh jixghel lejl u nhar
Das-Salib jekk darba thares lejh Ihallilek kurzita
Ghandu Storja jrid jirrakkontaha Izda jghidha ma jistax
Ghax sieket
Ghat-twissija tant ghaqlija L’hemm miktuba fuq il-hajt
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx
Din hija t-twissija l’hemm miktuba fuq il-hajt
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx
Tara x’ tara, tisma x’tisma, XXXXXXX!
Titkellem xejn ma hadd.
Mela darba kien hemm ragel Qed jistrieh taht das-salib
Ragel iehor dahal jigri Go l-isqaq li hemm fil-qrib
Dan tat-tieni mar fl-isqaq mifxul Ghax warajh kien gej qattiel
U hekk kif wasal l-iehor dlonk ried hjiel Minghand dak li kien jistrieh
u hiemed.
Qallu Ija minghalija rajtu diehel f’dan l-isqaq,
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx
Din hija t-twissija l’hemm miktuba fuq il-hajt
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx
Tara x’ tara, tisma x’tisma, XXXXXXX!
Titkellem xejn ma hadd.
Bhal afrid fl-isqaq mar jigri Jfittx lil dak li stahba hemm
Bi stallett nifidlu qalbu U hallih f’ghadira demm
Dak ir-ragel li kien tah il-hjiel Qal b’idejja x’mort ghamilt
Kwazi jien dal-povru ragel qtilt Ghax ilsieni twil u ma
bqajtx sieket.
Nghix fil-piena, hajti jiena, Ghax ilsieni ma razzantx.
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx
Din hija t-twissija l’hemm miktuba fuq il-hajt
Rajt ma rajtx, smajt ma smajtx
Tara x’ tara, tisma x’tisma, XXXXXXX!
Titkellem xejn ma hadd.
