<poem>
Waqt li l-pagni kont inqalleb
Djarju mimli kliem
Rakkonti w avventuri
Taru u ghebu f'ziffa rih

Ma' kull pagna li bdejt naqra
Rega' lura z-zmien
Memorji hadu s-sura
Fl-ewwel bewsa w l-ghezez kliem

Bhall-mewg li jilghab mal-blat
Taht ragg ta' xemx
Hekk kont nilghab jien ma' xuxtek
U bhall-warda li ddur
Lejn kull fejn tixref ix-xemx
Hekk kont indur jien lejn harstek

Tfegg ix-xemx fil-kliem li ghidt
Tfegg ix-xemx fil-kliem li m'ghidtx
Kliem li jinseg bhal hsus qalb dil-ghanja

Tfegg ix-xemx mas-seba' lwien
Tfegg ix-xemx man-noti sbieh
Noti jinsgu bhal hsus qalb din l-ghanja

U bhall-warda li ddur
Lejn kull fejn tixref ix-xemx
Hekk indur fis jien lejn harstek

Issa l-pagni imtlew sewwa
Lest iz-zmien li kien
Jinqaflu mar-ritratti
Sa ma jerga' jkollna -hin

Biex kull pagna nergghu nqallbu
U r-ritratti sbieh
Memorji jigu lura
Fl-ewwel bewsa u l-ghezez kliem

Bhall-mewg li jilghab mal-blat
Taht ragg ta' xemx
Hekk kont nilghab jien ma' xuxtek
U bhall-warda li ddur
Lejn kull fejn tixref ix-xemx
Hekk kont indur jien lejn harstek

Tfegg ix-xemx fil-kliem li ghidt
Tfegg ix-xemx fil-kliem li m'ghidtx
Kliem li jinseg bhal hsus qalb dil-ghanja

Tfegg ix-xemx mas-seba' lwien
Tfegg ix-xemx man-noti sbieh
Noti jinsgu bhal hsus qalb din l-ghanja

U bhall-warda li ddur
Lejn kull fejn tixref ix-xemx
Hekk indur fis jien lejn harstek

Tfegg ix-xemx fil-kliem li ghidt
Tfegg ix-xemx fil-kliem li m'ghidtx
Kliem li jinseg bhal hsus qalb dil-ghanja

Tfegg ix-xemx mas-seba' lwien
Tfegg ix-xemx man-noti sbieh
Noti jinsgu bhal hsus qalb din l-ghanja... ghalik!

==English translation==

<poem>
Leafing through the pages
Of my diary full of words
Of stories and adventures
Which flew away on a breath of the wind

On reading every page
The past came back to me
Memories took a live form
In the first kiss and the romantic words

Like the waves that play with the rocks
Under the rays of the sun
I used to play with your hair
And like the rose
which turns itself towards the sun
I used to turn towards your sight

The sun will rise for the words you said
The sun will rise for the words you didn't say
Words that weave in the thoughts of this song

The sun will rise for the rainbow's seven colours
The sun will rise for the sweet notes
Notes that weave with the thoughts of this song

And like the rose
Which turns itself towards the sun
I used to turn towards your sight

Now the pages are filled up
The past is over
The photos will be locked away
Until we find some time... who knows when!

One day we will leaf again through these pages
And the beautiful photos
Which will liven the sweetest memories
Of the first kiss and the romantic words

Like the waves that play with the rocks
Under the rays of the sun
I used to play with your hair
And like the rose
which turns itself towards the sun
I used to turn towards your sight

The sun will rise for the words you said
The sun will rise for the words you didn't say
Words that weave in the thoughts of this song

The sun will rise for the rainbow's seven colours
The sun will rise for the sweet notes
Notes that weave with the thoughts of this song

And like the rose
Which turns itself towards the sun
I used to turn towards your sight

The sun will rise for the words you said
The sun will rise for the words you didn't say
Words that weave in the thoughts of this song

The sun will rise for the rainbow's seven colours
The sun will rise for the sweet notes
Notes that weave with the thoughts of this song...for you!
