lyrics

Xelîlo Lawo

Yes, boy, boy, boy, you are the son of the king
With delicate lips, hands like the hands of a minister
Oh my God, forgive him, my beloved is still young/innocent
Lo lo loy lo lo loy Lo lo loy
Yes, boy, boy, your stature is as graceful as a shepherds stick
Your eyes are as black as the eyes of a snake
My beloved (my home) stands fainthearted next to the walls
Lo lo loy lo lo loy Lo lo loy
Yes, boy, you are the source of sunlight
Little by little, it gets dark if you go
Oh, my beloved (my home), the warmth of Khalil Ali's heart belongs to the king’s daughter
Lo loy loy Lo loy loy Lo loy loy
Yes, boy, boy, I'm not sorrowful and I'm not a beggar
Out of all the young boys, my heart belongs to one
My eyes are foreign and my heart is a beggar (for love)
Lo loy loy Lo loy loy Lo loy loy

Xelîlo lawo

Erê lawo lawo lawo ti lawê mîro
Dev caniko, dest wezîro
Lê lê xwedê bibir miradikê min cahîlo
Lo loy loy Lo loy loy Lo loy loy

Erê lawo lawo lawo bejna te zirav e dara şivan
Çavê te reş in çavê maran
Mala min mîna qurpisê lawan li ber dîwaran
Lo loy loy Lo loy loy Lo loy loy
Erê lawo lawo ti kanîka roka çiran
Piço piço dibe tarî ger tu here
Lê lê mala min tîna dilkê Xelîlê Alî ketiye keça mîran
Lo loy loy Lo loy loy Lo loy loy
Erê lawo lawo lawo ez ne kul im ne parsek im
Ji nav mehbeta lawa dil bi yek im
Çav xurbet im dil parsek im
Lo loy loy Lo loy loy Lo loy loy
