Σπασμένες αλυσίδες, σύμβολο της νίκης μας λαμπρό, Η σημαία μας κυματίζει περήφανα στον αέρα, Καλοπία, πατρίδα αγαπημένη, εσύ είσαι η μητέρα, Που μας ενώνεις όλους κάτω από τον ουρανό σου τον γαλανό. Siphinan: Nga malet deri në det, Kalopia na thërret, Kalopianë, Shifinë, Maxhatranë, Turjakë të bashkuar, Me flakën e lirisë në zemrat tona të ndezur, Ndërtojmë të ardhmen tonë me forcë të madhe. Zinxhirë të thyer, simbol i fitores sonë të shkëlqyer, Flamuri ynë valëvitet krenar në ajër, Kalopi, atdhe i dashur, ti je nëna jonë, Që na bashkon të gjithë nën qiellin tënd të kaltër.

Broken chains, symbol of our victory bright, Our flag waves proudly in the air, Kalopia, beloved homeland, you are our mother fair, Uniting us all under your sky so blue and light. |
