of Kosovo to the northeast, the Republic of Macedonia in the east, and Greece in the south. It has a coast on the Adriatic
Sea to the west and a coast on the Ionian Sea to the southwest. Despite having a troubled history, the country has been classified
as an emerging democracy since the 1990s.Unusual among Balkan nations, indeed anywhere in the world, Albania is a nearly
homogeneous country with only small minorities. Most of the population, roughly 95%, is ethnically Albanian. Many ethnic Albanians
also live in the bordering countries of Serbia, Montenegro, and the Republic of Macedonia. These amount to over 2,000,000;
of that, about 1,800,000 reside in Kosovo), 60,000 in Montenegro, and roughly 500,000 live in the Republic of Macedonia (see
Demographics of the Republic of Macedonia). Since 1991, large numbers of Albanians have emigrated to Greece, Italy, Germany,
Switzerland and other European countries.

Qysh n'vogli ne u deshtėm,
Njeni tjetrin pėrqafu
Zemrat tona jur pa jan'nda
Pėrher'njena tjetrėn dashunu.
Refrain:
Martesa jon' asht e lumtum
Konorzim i dashunis',
O zemėr kėndo pa pushue
Kang't e bukra tė lumnis',
A…
O zemėr kėndo pa pushue
Kang't e bukra tė lumnis'.
Si andėr ma tė shtrenjtė
Dit'n e sotme ne dėshrum,
Zemrat tona kur pa jan'nda,
Njena tjetrėn e kėrkun. Refrain.
Dit' ma e bardh e ndritshme
Sot pėr mue po agon,
Gjith' natyra po kėndon
Ma tė bukrėn kang' tė zemrės son'. Refrain.
Since we loved each other as children,
We embraced each other.
Our hearts have never been apart;
We always loved each other.
Refrain:
Our marriage is happy
A marriage of love
O sing without rest
The beautiful songs of good fortune.
Like the strongest dream,
We desired this day today.
Our hearts have never been apart;
We sought each other.
Refrain.
Today this white and shining day
Dawns for me.
All of nature is singing
Its most beautiful song. Refrain.

Ēobankat moj qė shkojnė
Zallit moj ēobankat ė
Shkojnė e tjerrin pėr djemtė
Malit moj ēobankat ė
Refrain:
O liri, liri pėr djemtė e malit ė
Djemtė moj me yllė tė kuq mes ballit ė
O moj ēobankat ė
O moj tė mirat ė
Tirr motėr moj tė tjerrim
Tu bėjmė rroba trimave
Tirr trashė o mos e tirr
Hollė moj mos e tirr moj
Pėr trimat qė flejnė dė
Borė o moj nė dėbor.
Oh, my shepherdesses who walk
On stony paths, oh, my shepherdesses
Go and spin (wool) for the boys
In the mountains (freedom fighers), oh my shepherdesses.
Refrain:
Oh, freedom, freedom for the boys in the mountains
Boys with a red star on their foreheads
Oh, you shepherdesses
Oh, you good ones.
Spin, my sister, spin now
To make clothes for the heroes.
Spin it thick, not thin
Do not spin it thin.
For the heroes who sleep
In the snow, oh, the snow.

When you do dance, I wish you
A wave o' the sea, that you might ever do
Nothing but that.
