| Poetic si murdar.
| Poetic and dirty.
|
| Fara tactici complicate, fara scoala de PR.
| No complicated tactics, no PR school.
|
| Rasucesc chistoace la ultimul fum,
| I twist the cyst at the last smoke,
|
| Ating cu palma pamantul, el ma va primi oricum.
| I touch the ground, he will receive me anyway.
|
| Nu poti parasi rascrucea, tre' s-alegi un drum,
| You can't leave the crossroads, you have to choose a path,
|
| Dar iar si iar te-nvarte viata ca pe un nebun.
| But life goes on and on like a madman.
|
| Tu nu esti nici macar fum si scrum.
| You're not even smoke and ashes.
|
| Esti un nume absolut necunoscut pe un album.
| You are an absolutely unknown name on an album.
|
| Poetic si murdar.
| Poetic and dirty.
|
| Noi nu facem complimente, noi doar observam calitati certe.
| We do not compliment, we only observe certain qualities.
|
| Sceptici ca un bici de taran la minuni,
| Skeptics like a miracle peasant's whip,
|
| Nu pentru ca atei, dar pentru ca minciuni.
| Not because of atheists, but because of lies.
|
| Doar cartea inchisa isi pastreaza harul,
| Only the closed book keeps its grace,
|
| Cartea deschisa des doar ofera darul de acces
| The open book often only offers the gift of access
|
| La cunostinte reci. | Cold acquaintances. |
| Auzi?
| Hear?
|
| Noi nu muream de foame - noi sarbatoream in beci!
| We were not starving - we were celebrating in the cellar!
|
| Poetic si murdar.
| Poetic and dirty.
|
| Cum au disparut casetele si tu ai sa dispari.
| How the tapes disappeared and you disappear.
|
| Cand a disparut vinylul tu nici nu erai in plan sa apari,
| When the vinyl disappeared you weren't even planning to appear,
|
| Asa ca daca-i vorba de scandal - sari!
| So if it's a scandal - jump!
|
| Dar nu sari din prostie, ori din gelozie,
| But do not jump out of stupidity or jealousy,
|
| Ori din ce-o fi mama lui sa fie.
| Or whatever his mother may be.
|
| Tu sari pentru principii tari.
| You jump for strong principles.
|
| Nu te-nteleg copiii?
| Don't the children understand you?
|
| Las' c-o s' te-nteleaga atunci cand o sa creasca mari.
| Let them understand you when they grow up.
|
| Poetici si murdari.
| Poetic and dirty.
|
| Ei sunt copii tai si clar iti par atat de bizari.
| They are your children and they clearly seem so weird to you.
|
| Si tu nu intelegi ce ei spun.
| And you don't understand what they're saying.
|
| I-ai educa altfel, dac-ai sti de pe acum.
| You would educate them differently if you knew by now.
|
| Poetic si murdar.
| Poetic and dirty.
|
| E procesul vietii care-ti da moartea-n dar, dar
| It is the process of life that gives you death as a gift, but
|
| Poti fi sigur - te nasti si mori singur.
| You can be sure - you are born and you die alone.
|

| Da, da.
| Yes Yes.
|
| Poetii murdari dispar. | Dirty poets disappear. |
| Da. | Yes. |
| Da.
| Yes.
|
| Poetii curati raman vii si scriu in zadar
| Pure poets stay alive and write in vain
|
| Poezii ce sunt concepute doar pentru tipar.
| Poems that are designed only for print.
|
| Compara acum in minte, auzi? | Compare in mind now, hear? |
| Compara acum in minte
| Compare in mind now
|
| Greutatea cartii cu a unui ziar.
| The weight of a book and a newspaper.
|
| Murdaria e bogatie, trebuie sa fii murdar
| Dirt is wealth, you have to be dirty
|
| Ca sa treci de sine, sinele tau e imbracat in alb.
| To go beyond yourself, your self is clothed in white.
|
| E imbracat in alb nu pentry ca e curat
| He is dressed in white, not because he is clean
|
| Ci pentru ca nu e colorat. | But because it's not colorful. |
| Inca.
| Yet.
|
| Murdaria e culoare.
| Dirt is color.
|
| E pretul de pod.
| It's the price of the bridge.
|
| E calea spre zare.
| It's the road to the horizon.
|
| E miezul din samanta ce da nastere la iarba ce rasare
| It is the seed kernel that gives birth to the rising grass
|
| Sub soarele sub care totul naste si totul moare.
| Under the sun under which everything is born and everything dies.
|
| Asadar, dispar si poetii murdari...
| So the dirty poets disappear ...
|
| Poetii murdari dispar. | Dirty poets disappear. |

|
| Lume, lume... Tu nu-mi esti sora!
| World, world ... You are not my sister!
|
| Stiu prea muti tati, atatia tati ce ti-au dat fii.
| I know too many dumb dads, so many dads who gave you sons.
|
| Tu te-ai casatorit cu toti furandu-i dintre cei vii.
| You married everyone by stealing from the living.
|
| Deci, esti cea mai proasta nora!
| So you're the worst daughter-in-law!
|
| Indragostita esti de piesele minore
| You're in love with the minor pieces
|
| Nu pentru ca le intelegi ci pentru ca tu esti minora.
| Not because you understand them, but because you're a minor.
|
| Atatea mii de ani si-aceleasi scoruri.
| So many thousands of years and the same scores.
|
| Nu-ti pasa de invingatori, tu trebuie sa-ti pastrezi noroiul.
| You don't care about the winners, you have to keep your mud.
|
| Dar eu iti multumesc oricum pentru ca le dai voie
| But I thank you anyway for allowing them
|
| Si-i murdaresti numai pe cei ce sincer au nevoie.
| And you only pollute those who sincerely need it.
|
| Ironic e ca printre ei au fost prea multi indragostiti de tine.
| The irony is that too many of them have fallen in love with you.
