Ai, Māte Latgale(original) |
| Viņš klusi jautāja reiz magonei un nātrei |
| Kā gan viņš patikt var man vidzemniecei ātrai |
| Kas nāks reiz tīrumus un rožu druvas ravēt |
| Un skaisto jaunību un krāšņo dzīvi slavēt |
| Ai, māte Latgale, tu dārga man un mīļa |
| Es raugos magonēs kā tavā vaigā zvīļā |
| Vai rītos, vakaros vai arī naktīs vēlu |
| Par tevi domāju un tavu skaisto dēlu |
| Jau trejas vasaras viņš man' pie sevis saucis |
| Līdz pašai Aiviekstei man lepnai pakaļ braucis |
| Jau trejas vasaras viņš zābakos vien āvies |
| Pa talkām dzēris daudz, pat radu godos kāvies |
| Ai, māte Latgale, tu dārga man un mīļa |
| Es raugos magonēs kā tavā vaigā zvīļā |
| Vai rītos, vakaros vai arī naktīs vēlu |
| Par tevi domāju un tavu skaisto dēlu |
| Es, māte, lakatu tev došu Rīgā pirktu |
| Lai tu, uz ciemiem ejot, rasā nesamirktu |
| Lai skaists un rakstains tas ap taviem pleciem kļautos |
| Kad tu ar vedeklu par savu dēlu rātos |
| Ai, māte Latgale, tu dārga man un mīļa |
| Es raugos magonēs kā tavā vaigā zvīļā |
| Vai rītos, vakaros vai arī naktīs vēlu |
| Par tevi domāju un tavu skaisto dēlu |
| (translation) |
| He once asked the poppy and the nettle silently |
| How can he like me in Vidzeme fast? |
| Who will come once in the fields and weeds of rose hips |
| And praise the beautiful youth and the glorious life |
| Oh, mother Latgale, you are dear to me and dear |
| I look at the poppy in my face |
| Whether in the mornings, evenings or late at night |
| I think of you and your beautiful son |
| He's been calling me for three summers |
| He has proudly followed me to Aiviekste himself |
| He has been wearing boots for three summers |
| He drank a lot during work, even missed his relatives |
| Oh, mother Latgale, you are dear to me and dear |
| I look at the poppy in my face |
| Whether in the mornings, evenings or late at night |
| I think of you and your beautiful son |
| I, my mother, will give you a scarf to buy in Riga |
| So that you don't get wet in the dew when you go to the villages |
| Let it be beautiful and patterned around your shoulders |
| When you're in a mess with your son |
| Oh, mother Latgale, you are dear to me and dear |
| I look at the poppy in my face |
| Whether in the mornings, evenings or late at night |
| I think of you and your beautiful son |
