about
An Hini a Garan (The One I Love) is a 'gwerz' (traditional Breton song) with a melody originating in Vannes, Brittany.
lyrics
An hini a garan, gwechall bihan er gêr
Pa oamp tostig an eil, an eil ouzh egile
Va c’halon ne gare, gare nemet unan
Pa oan bihan er gêr an hini a garan
An hini a garan, ‘m eus kollet da viken
‘Mañ degouezhet pell ha ne zistroio ken
Ha setu ma kanan, kanan keti ketañ
Ha setu ma kanan d’an hini a garan
An hini a garan, un deiz ‘n eus va losket
Aet eo d’ar broioù pell, d’ur vro n’an’vezan ket
Aet eo d’ar broioù pell, da c'hounit e vara
Kollet, kollet un deiz, an hini a garan
(Translation)
The one I love, before, when we were little at home
When we were so near to each other
My heart was loving only one
When I was little at home, the one I love
The one I love, I lost him forever
He has gone far away and will never come back
And here I sing, I sing my songs
And here I sing to the one I love
The one I love, one day he left me
Left for distant countries, countries that I don’t know
Left for distant countries to earn his bread
Lost, lost one day, the one I love.
