I ran across an old favorite of mine and just had to put it into Lilitika. It's not a perfectly one-to-one translation, that wouldn't be any fun, but I think it keeps the flow right while being largely adapted to Lilitai culture. Any errors are mine.

Am'rha zhí'tshóraLove Again
Ri trassi trúolebáse,I can see it in your eyes,
Alnúí dútedai, yolí mokadíkwai,No more tears, no alibis,
Soimarha osharha vòra íráisa noyú,I'm still in love with you,
Kas yírha rebossezísa,There's so much I gotta show,
Yentalyú rarha avanlísa,I will never let you go,
Ekla noyú enzigya woisísa,But still I know for sure,
Kéflasanré,Come take me by the hand,
Olí yeranzhofelía, 'kekhía—This summer never ends

Khé iféwoisáse éqra am'rha zhí'tshóra,And I want to know that you believe in love again,
Ýowím salla oltalya ethanré éhúe kekhía ola avá,Please tell me now it's not the end,
Noyú ralla zelgembáse éqra,'Cause this I promise you so true,
Ta yeranzhofelía rarha íkwesarái,The summer belongs to you,
Am'rha zhí'tshóra nai da?Could you believe in love again?
Avúe dzú shiwolebáse éqra illeponáre da?How can I make you understand?
Noyú ralla zelgembòsa sôka éqra,But this I promise you so true,
Ta yeranzhofelía rarha íkwesarái,The summer belongs to you.

Déyú sarha flovatáre, sur empròsa da?Would you catch me if I fall?
Aléfarha apassa kúekhtía surrepòsa da?Crash and burn and lose it all,
Salla súnarha rékúòsa ethanré,Tell me what to do,
Kwúe rarha ifilísa liti venakoa hé venatsha,'Cause I need you night and day,
