Youkali [English translation]

It’s almost to the end of the world

That my wandering boat,

On the waves aimlessly afloat,

Took me one day.

The island is only small,

But the fairy inhabiting it

Welcomes us all

And gently invites us to stay.

Youkali is the land of dreams we treasure,

Youkali is happiness, Youkali is pleasure,

Youkali is the place where we stop worrying,

It’s the clouds parting

In the dark of our night,

The star that shines bright,

That’s Youkali

Youkali is to honour your vows, ever faithful,

It’s the land where love is shared and grateful,

Youkali is hoping

There will be no more sorrow,

It’s the deliverance

We all wait to find tomorrow.

Youkali is the land of dreams we treasure,

Youkali is happiness, Youkali is pleasure.

But it’s all fantasy and folly,

There is no such place as Youkali!

But it’s all fantasy and folly,

There is no such place as Youkali!

And life carries on day by day,

Strenuous and grey,

And to break away,

The poor mortal soul,

Ever aching to be freed,

Must first solve the mystery

Of where our dreams lie buried,

On some Youkali…

Youkali is the land of dreams we treasure,

Youkali is happiness, Youkali is pleasure,

Youkali is the place where we stop worrying,

It’s the clouds parting

In the dark of our night,

The star that shines bright,

That’s Youkali!

But it’s all fantasy and folly

There is no such place as Youkali

But it’s all fantasy and folly,

There is no such place as Youkali…
