Ceata [English translation]

It got in our way,

in the evening at the fountain,

we, hungry, without money

for about a week

The gang of lads with long hair

and pipe in hand,

They stopped short

give us "good evening"

Hey, hey you! Come with us

and if you don't like it, we give your money back.

Hey, hey you! Come with us

so from now on, the whole people will forget the needs.

They got up, young and old

They went out into the street

Dress for the holiday

for the world to see them

All those that for centuries

Harness the yokes

They made it bloom

Free the first buds

We got up in the morning

and went on the road

All that we wished for a life

is now fullfilling

The one who knows to dance the "hora"

doesn't have to have thoughts

Now, in the romanian country,

lands are being given...

And so...

Why are we staying? What are we judging about?

We'll talk and analize it till tomorrow

Why are we staying? Let's just not let

the time go back!

And so...

Why are we staying? How can't we keep

the mist of hope that remained.

And so...

Why are we staying? Let's just not let

the time go back!
