Ψηλά βουνά, μαύρα βουνά, ποτέ δεν χαμηλώνετε, ποτέ δεν λέτε στον ήλιο να βγει, στο χιόνι να λιώσει, να πρασινίσουν οι κάμποι, ν’ ανθίσουν οι λαγκαδιές. Και τα βουνά αποκρίθηκαν, βουνά παρηγορήθηκαν. In English, my rendering
High mountains, black mountains, you never come down; you never tell the sun to rise, the snow to melt, the plains to turn green, the glens to blossom. And the mountains answered; the mountains were consoled.
