[Verse 1]

Wadnuhu wuu i garaacayaa

My heart is beating

Caguhuna dhulka ma taabtaan

And my feet don't touch the ground

Dhaantada markay bilaabato

When the dhaanto begins

Shankaroon baa iga farxisa

Shankaroon makes me happy

[Chorus]

Shankaroon, Shankaroonay

Shankaroon, oh Shankaroon

Nuurka noloshaydaay

Light of my life

Dhaanto ii ciyaar

Dance the dhaanto for me

Hoy, hoy, hoy, hoy!

[Verse 2]

Ubaxii boqorada arooska

The flower of the queen of brides

Dhexdana laxawga kuu dheer

And your waist has a beautiful sway

Dhaantada markay bilaabato

When the dhaanto begins

Shankaroon baa iga farxisa

Shankaroon makes me happy

[Chorus]

Shankaroon, Shankaroonay

Shankaroon, oh Shankaroon

Nuurka noloshaydaay

Light of my life

Dhaanto ii ciyaar

Dance the dhaanto for me

Hoy, hoy, hoy, hoy!

[Bridge]

Garaac durbaanka

Beat the drum

Gacmaha isku dhufo

Clap your hands

Aan wada ciyaarno

Let's all dance together

[Chorus]

Shankaroon, Shankaroonay

Shankaroon, oh Shankaroon

Nuurka noloshaydaay

Light of my life

Dhaanto ii ciyaar

Dance the dhaanto for me

Hoy, hoy, hoy, hoy!
