De-abia plecaseși [English translation]

You had left suddenly. I asked you to leave.

I followed you alongside the uphill road,

Until you disappeared at the end, between the clovers,

You didn't look behind one single time!

I would have given you a sign after you left,

But what's a sign from a shadow far away ?

I wanted you to leave, I also wanted you to stay.

You listened to my first thought.

My silent thought didn't stop you.

Why have you left? Why would you have stayed?
