Matinet me'n llevo jo,
matinet a punta d'alba
i content me'n vaig xiulant,
dret a la costa solana,
gira'm an a mi,
gira'm an a mi la cara,
gira'm an a mi.

Quan a mitja costa som,
sento una veu prima i clara,
i me'n pega un salt al cor,
que és la meva enamorada,
gira'm an a mi,
gira'm an a mi la cara,
gira'm an a mi.

Al cim de la costa som,
la veig detràs d'una mata,
-Deu vos guard la dolça amor,
matinareta heu estada,
gira'm an a mi,
gira'm an a mi la cara,
gira'm an a mi.
