A few different Lojban translations of this have been created.

English lyrics (up to slight variations)


This is the song that never ends

It just goes on and on, my friends

Some people -- started singing it, not knowing what it was

And now they'll keep on singing it forever just because

(repeat)

Lojban lyrics

rab.spir:


dei na'e sisti selsa'a

ije ri ranji sai za'a

i lo prenu co'a sanga sy i ra na djuno ru   [["i lo" is on the same note|"i lo" is on the same note]]

i caku py ci'iroi sanga ki'u le du'u

xorxes:


dei ca se sanga ze'e ba

i ranji lo'e vitno ia

i lo la'e di'u naldjuno co'a sanga ru

gi'e ba ze'e ru'i sanga ki'u le du'u

zirbolc: here are some more variations.


dei selsa'a poi na sisti

ri ranji ije ranji doi pendo

le prenu poi na jimpe ku co'apu sanga ra

.ije py. ze'eba sanga mu'i zi'o


dei selsa'a poi na sisti

ri ranji doi pendo be mi

Perhaps one entirely literal translation that doesn't fit the tune would be a useful reference, but why five? Also, all your ".i"s are missing. --rab.spir
