| Ori de cate ori, vad cete de scolari
| Every time I see groups of schoolchildren
|
| Spre liceu mergand, surazator,
| Going to high school, smiling,
|
| Stau si ii privesc, si-n gand ma regasesc,
| I sit and look at them, and I find myself thinking,
|
| Pe vremea cand eram si eu de varsta lor.
| At a time when I was their age.
|
| In randul patru, banca de la geam
| Fourth row, the bench by the window
|
| E un crampei din viata mea
| It's a cramp in my life
|
| In randul patru, locul meu era,
| Fourth, my place was,
|
| Si-oriunde-as fi, cat voi trai, nu-l voi uita.
| And wherever I am, as long as I live, I will not forget him.
|
| Param-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-param,
| Param-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-param,
|
| param-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-paa
| param-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-pam-paa
|
| In randul patru locul meu era,
| Among the four, my place was,
|
| Si-oriunde-as fi, cat voi trai, nu-l voi uita!
| And wherever I am, as long as I live, I will not forget him!
|
| Mi-amintesc cu drag de anii ce-au trecut,
| I fondly remember the past years,
|
| Ani de cautari si de visari.
| Years of searching and dreaming.
|
| Clasa mi-o revad, si mi-amintesc si eu
| I see the class again, and I remember it too
|
| De toti profesorii din anii de liceu.
| By all the high school teachers.

|
| Anii au zburat, si-n suflet au pastrat,
| The years flew by, and they kept in their souls,
|
| Chipul tuturor colegilor.
| The face of all colleagues.
|
| Cand intamplator, si azi ne intalnim,
| Coincidentally, we still meet today,
|
| De anii de liceu cu drag ne amintim.
| We fondly remember our high school years.
