Original lyrics
Djelem, djelem
Đelem, đelem lungone dromeja,
maladilem šukare Romeja
Đelem, đelem lungone dromeja,
maladilem šukare Romeja
Haj Romale, haj čavale
Haj Romale, haj čavale
Katar aven amare čavale
Andre care kathare bukare
Ala voliv laće kale jakha,
Kaj si kale sar duj kale drakha
Ćimdem laće lolo dikhlo tursko,
Kaj volivla ačhel latar pusto

Translation
I'm Traveling
I'm coming, I'm coming on the long roads,
I am meeting beautiful Roma,
I'm coming, I'm coming on the long roads,
I am meeting beautiful Roma,
O Roma, o people
O Roma, o people
From where come ours people
inside čerga from where they are growing?
So much I love her dark eyes,
Which are dark as a two dark grapes
I'm buying for her red Turkish scarf,
Which, when she stop loving, it'll get left behind
