The lyrics in full to Duje

Below are the lyrics in Albanian (as they are sung) and the English translation

Diçka mrena
Frymën ma nal’
S’di çka bohet, bohet
Po du me e nal’
(Ç’ka o ka bohet?!)
Krejt tu i pas’
E krejt tu i pas’
S’po muj me u k’naq

Jan’ tu u nda
Vec për nji fjal’
Jan’ tu u nda
Dashnin’ kan’ vra
Jan’ tu u nda
E kan’ harru
Se kan’ nji shpi
Sofër me f’mij’

Duje!
Si dikur ti duje
At’ dashni ti ruje!
Si jeten ti duje!
Mos e gjuj me gure!
Si dikur ti duje
At’ dashni ti ruje
Sa jeten ti duje!

Jan’ tu u nda
Vec për nji fjal’
Jan’ tu u nda
Dashnin’ kan’ vra
Jan’ tu u nda
E kan’ harru
Se kan’ nji shpi
Sofër me f’mij’

Duje!
Si dikur ti duje
At’ dashni ti ruje!
Si jeten ti duje!
Mos e gjuj me gure!
Si dikur ti duje
At’ dashni ti ruje
Sa jeten ti duje!
(Duje , duje)
Jan’ tu u nda
(Duje, duje)
Vec për nji fjal’
Jan’ tu u nda
Dashnin’ kan’ vra
( Duje, duje)
Jan’ tu u nda
(Duje, duje)
E kan’ harru
Se kan’ nji shpi
Sofër me f’mij’
(Duje, duje)

English translation

Something inside me
Takes my breath away
Don’t know what’s going on
But I want to make it stop
(What’s going on)
Having it all
And having it all,
But isn’t enough
(Why)

They’re falling apart
Just for a word
They’re falling apart
They killed love
They’re falling apart
And they forgot
How we were a home,
A table filled with kids

Love it,
Like you used to love it,
That love, keep it
Just like the life, you love it
Don’t throw stones on it,
But just like you used to, love it,
That love, keep it
Like the life you love, love it

They’re falling apart
Just for a word
They’re falling apart
They killed love
They’re falling apart
And they forgot
How we were a home,
A table filled with kids

Love it,
Like you used to love it,
That love, keep it
Just like the life, you love it
Don’t throw stones on it,
But just like you used to, love it,
That love, keep it
Like the life you love, love it

(Love it, love it)
They’re falling apart
(Love it, love it)
Just for a word
They’re falling apart
They killed love
(Love it, love it)
They’re falling apart
(Love it, love it)
And they forgot
How we were a home,
A table filled with kids
(Love it, love it)
