[Verse 1]
The bells of the village
The bells of the village
Are singing in the country
The sound of the bells
Brighten up the mountain

[Chorus]
We hear, we hear
The shepherds, the shepherds
Singing in the prairies
Those refrains so light
That charm their (female) friends:
Tra la la, tra la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la la la la la
Tra la la, tra la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la la la la la

[Verse 2]
It's time for return
And the young shepherdess
Seeing the end of the day
Goes back to her home

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
When in the rock
The storm is raging
Around the old fireplace
Happily we sing

[Chorus]
