Lyrics:
Gula gula nieida gánda
Gula máttut dál du èurvot
Manin attát eatnama duolvat mirkkoduvvot guoriduvvot
Gula jiena nieida gánda
Gula máttaráhkuid jiena
Eana lea min buohkaid eadni dan jos goddit ieza jápmit
Leatgo diktán ieèèat báinnot
Leatgo iešge mielde gilvvus
Gula máttut dál dus jerret Itgo don muitte gos don vulget
Dus leat oappát
Dus leat vieljat Lulli - ameriihka arvevuvddiin
Ruonaeatnama geadgerittuin Itgo don muitte gos don vulget
Gula gula nieida gánda
Gula máttut dál du èurvot
Manin attát eatnama duolvat mirkkoduvvot guoriduvvot
Gula jiena nieida gánda
Gula máttaráhkuid jiena
Eana lea min buohkaid eadni
Dan jos goddit ieza jápmit
Lyrics in English:
Hear the voices of the foremothers
Hear
They ask you why you let the earth become polluted
Exhausted
They remind you where you come from
Do you hear?
Again they want to remind you
That the earth is our mother
If we take her life We die with her.
