Nu știi tu să fii bărbat [English translation]

I open myself, you close me,

I want to run, but you catch me again,

I want to cry out, you tell me to shut up,

Why do I do it?

I throw myself, like a child

I listen to you, pleasant, humble

Why do I do it?

Why don't I leave, why do I settle?

I gave you power over me,

I am strong but not this way, but not now

When do I have to say it;

How do I say it to you?

You don't know how to be a man

For a girl.

You didn't even try,

Not even once.

My argument is mute,

It's just for me.

You don't know how to be a man

And nobody teaches you how.

You don't like what I say, you don't like how I sing,

Not even how I dress, not even how I feel;

You don't like anything!

Why do you still keep me wrapped around your little finger?\

Either you love me

Or you hate me,

When you're here, when you aren't here anymore,

Why do you still hold onto me, why are you stalling?

I gave you power over me,

I am strong but not this way, but not now

When do I have to say it;

How do I say it to you?

You don't know how to be a man

For a girl.

You didn't even try,

Not even once.

My argument is mute,

It's just for me.

You don't know how to be a man

And nobody teaches you how.
