Translated lyrics
Night is coming down, our song is raising, Breaking thru the sky. Round and round again, our "hora", Renewed a second time ! Round and round again, let's turn, For our road comes to no end, For the chain is continued... For our hearts are one heart Always and forever, for the chain is continued... Oh,oho,... lai-la-lai-la-la...
