The voice of Maria [Sardinian [northern dialects] translation]

Sa luna istanotte

In chelos d’anneu

Sa malafortuna

Est contras a Deus

The oak in its glory

A power that all fear

Will whisper so purely

That day when we hear

Sa ‘oghe ‘e Maria

So soft, sweet, how near

Su nìnnidu lentu

Away casting sadness

Olvidat s’anneu

Ave Mara

Abounding with mercy

To lead through the storm

Sa vida nos colat

Che raju in s’istìu

And free from temptation

The path, sure, we’ll find

Su sole che juchet

In chelu totue.

The voice of Maria

Est una ninnia

That brings us forgiveness

Ammajos d’ammentu

Rejoice, sing out clear

Ave Maria

The voice of Maria / Sa ‘oghe ‘e Maria

So soft, sweet, how near

That brings us forgiveness / Su nìnnidu lentu

Away casting sadness / Ammajos d’ammentu

Rejoice, sing out clear

Ave Maria
