Yesterday
Yalúmë [former times]
All my troubles seemed so far away
endanyassë fellën únyérë [In my heart I felt no sorrow]
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Nar sin i nwalmë na úmentë [And now the torment is without end]
Oh I believe in yesterday
Ai, mínanyë na yalúmë [Ah, I wish to go back to former times]
Suddenly
sillumë [this hour]
I'm not half the man I used to be
fëanya sintëa an lómë [my spirit is fading to night]
There's a shadow hanging over me
tás na morna huinë telmë nye [there is dark deep shadow covering me]
Oh yesterday came suddenly
Ai, yalúmë avánië [Ah, former times have gone away]
Why she had to go?
meldonya vanwa [my lover gone]
I don't know, she wouldn't say
castarya, úmës quetë [her reason, she did not say]
I said something wrong
carnë nat raica [I did thing wrong]
Now I long for yesterday
Sin merënyë yalúmë [Now I long for former times]
Yesterday
Yalúmë [former times]
love was such an easy game to play
hanyanën melmëva tyalië [I was skilled with love's game]
Now I need a place to hide away
Sin órënya merinyë lomë [Now my soul I need to hide]
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Ai, savinyë mí yalúmë [Ah, I believe in yesterday]
Why she had to go?
meldonya vanwa [my lover gone]
I don't know, she wouldn't say
castarya, úmës quetë [her reason, she did not say]
I said something wrong
carnë nat raica [I did thing wrong]
Now I long for yesterday
Sin merënyë yalúmë [Now I long for former times]
Yesterday
Yalúmë [former times]
love was such an easy game to play
hanyanën melmëva tyalië [I was skilled with love's game]
Now I need a place to hide away
Sin órënya merinyë lomë [Now my soul I need to hide]
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Ai, savinyë mí yalúmë [Ah, I believe in yesterday]
