D’argent à une aigle de gueules, au vol abaissé, membrée, becquée et couronnée d’or, empiétant une montagne de trois coupeaux de sable issant d’une mer d’azur mouvant de la pointe et ondée d’argent.

Au clar de la luna (twice).
N’ai jamai tant filat,
N’ai jamai fà fourtuna.
Traderiderèna, traderidera.		 I spun during seven years
In the moonlight (twice).
I have never spun that much,
I never make my fortune.

N’ai filat set an
Dapé de ma maire (twice),
De fièu fin filavan
Per lou miéu calignaire.
Traderiderèna, traderidera.		 I spun during seven years
Close to my mother (twice),
Thin thread we were spinning
For my lover.
Tradéridérèna, tradéridéra.

3rd verse
Filerai autant
Per nouòstre Messia (twice),
Un escagnoun de fièu
Per faire una camiha.
Traderiderèna, traderidera.		 I will spin as much
For our Messiah (twice),
A skein of thread
To make [him] a shirt.
Tradéridérèna, tradéridéra.
