Zoti Yt Vjen!

Representative Text

1 Zoti yt vjen! Gëzohu, botë!
Pranofsh ti mbretin tënd.
Një vend t’i japë çdo zemër sot,
Edhe çdo zë një këng’,
Edhe çdo zë një këng’,
Edhe, edhe çdo zë një këng’.

2 Ja, Shpëtimtari u afrua!
Kudo shpërthen gëzim.
Çdo mal, shkëmb, fush’, lum e përrua
Jehon këtë ngaz’llim,
Jehon këtë ngaz’llim,
Jehon, jehon këtë ngaz’llim.

3 Gjembat mbi tokë mos rritshin më,
As hidhërim as faj,
Por gjith’ bekimet një pas një.
Ka thyer mallkimin ai!
Ka thyer mallkimin ai!
Ka thyer, ka thyer mallkimin ai!

4 Me dhembshuri e rreptësi
Ai kombet i drejton.
Drejt’sin’ e dashurisë së tij
Tani gjithkush shikon,
Tani gjithkush shikon,
Tani, tani gjithkush shikon.
