It is sung in Megrelian , a language related to Georgian. "We wish you a Happy New Year. God bless the past year and the new one. Prosperity to you and yours. May your storehouses be filled with corn. May the bird of your dreams flap its wings. May you soon see your loved ones who are far away. Now, I am going to the mountains, and will not see you for five years."  less
