Translation of the song lyrics Pe Limba Noastră - El Nino, Stres, Dragos

Pe Limba Noastră (original)

Te vad ca suferi si nu vrei sa recunosti
Sunt atatia-n jurul tau dar pentru tine toti sunt prosti
Monstrii pe pamant, n-am un cuvant sa defineasca
Toate gandurile mele ti le spun pe limba noastra
Am o fereastra, deasupra capului respir
Aer curat atunci cand orasu-i in delir
Si ma inspira atunci cand intru in metrou
Cand cobor la magazin defapt lucrez la un tablou
E totul nou, da' toate-s vechi cum le stiam
Sa fii tare nu-i de-ajuns, aici tre' sa fii titan
E unu slab prin cartier se da Van Damme
E altul mai tacut, il vezi des la Moneygram
Am un ocean aproape, vara 40 de grade
Am un con de gigi bun, ma-ntind pe plaja, plec departe
Pe limba noastra, ce-ar putea sa ne doboare
Cand ti-am zis de la-nceput ca ne-am facut poeti de foame!
Pe limba noastra, o limba straina
Pentru voi imi pun inima pe foi, multe ploi
Abatute peste mine si credeam ca sunt smardoi
Pana viata mi-a aratat ca eu eram doar un gunoi
Si-am realizat cat de importanta e familia
Si m-am schimbat, drogurile nu-mi aduc fericirea
Ii vad ca-s diferiti ca ciocolata si vanilia
Si daca au un par in mana se cred mafia din Sicilia
A, si vreau sa merg mult mai departe
Sa trec peste toate lacrimile varsate si poate
Ca asta a fost sa fie
Dumnezeu mi-a pus un pix in mana si mi-a zis:
«Lasa strada, scrie!
"
In '81 vedeam primul rasarit de soare
Era atat de romanesc si plin de culoare
Incercam cu pasi marunti sa ma ridic pe picioare
Sa-nteleg sensul cuvintelor pe romaneste in continuare
Dar una singura mi-a placut si-am prins-o repede
Era plina de dragoste si-atat de limpede
Jargoane, consoane, injuraturi ce-ti dau frisoane
Dar coane, e graiu' romanesc ciripit de fiecare
Ce-mi trebuie alta limba cand asta imi e mama?!
Cand urc pe scena, romanii mei atat de frumos aclama…
I-as face reclama in toata lumea, de lunea pana lunea
Sa duc traditia mai departe continuand misiunea
Pe limba noastra, cea mai proasta gluma
Dac-o da unu din frati, tre' sa stii ca-i cea mai buna!
Era sa jur ca nu mai scriu
Dar fara versuri e pustiu ca la metrou noaptea tarziu
La fel de pustiu ca «puştiu» fara diacritice
Plus ca bulangii n-ar mai avea ce sa critice
Pezia mea o spun pe limba noastra
Ca in alta limba ar fi exprimarea proasta
Timpu-nseamna bani si uite cum trec anii
Fara indoiala ca trupa lu' Gwen Stefani
Singurul cec pe care-l stiu e mic check-u
Singurul MC care fac bani e mec-u
Recunosc ca n-o sa ma las de scris
Sunt dependent de scris ca un davaist profesionist
Pe limba noastra, cea mai proasta gluma
Dac-o da unu din frati, tre' sa stii ca-i cea mai buna!

(translation)

I see you suffering and you don't want to admit it
There are so many people around you, but to you they are all stupid
Monsters on earth, I don't have a word to define
I tell you all my thoughts in our language
I have a window, above my head I breathe
Fresh air when the city is delirious
And it inspires me when I enter the subway
When I go down to the store I'm actually working on a painting
Everything is new, yes, everything is old as I knew it
Being strong is not enough, here you have to be a titan
There's a skinny guy around the neighborhood called Van Damme
He's another quieter one, you see him often on Moneygram
I have an ocean close by, 40 degrees in the summer
I have a good gig cone, I lie on the beach, I go far away
In our language, what could bring us down
When I told you from the beginning that we became poets of hunger!
In our language, a foreign language
For you I put my heart on the sheets, many rains
They fell on me and I thought they were sardonic
Until life showed me that I was just garbage
I realized how important family is
And I've changed, drugs don't bring me happiness
I see them as different as chocolate and vanilla
And if they have a hair in their hand, they think they are the Mafia from Sicily
Oh, and I want to go much further
To get over all the tears shed and maybe
That it was meant to be
God put a pen in my hand and said:
"Leave the street, write!
"
In '81 we saw the first sunrise
It was so Romanian and full of color
I was trying to get up on my feet with small steps
To understand the meaning of the words in Romanian below
But I liked only one and I caught it quickly
She was full of love and so clear
Jargons, consonants, swear words that give you chills
But damn, it's Romanian slang chirped by everyone
Why do I need another language when this is my mother?!
When I go on stage, my Romanians cheer so beautifully...
I would advertise it all over the world, from Monday to Monday
To carry on the tradition by continuing the mission
In our language, the worst joke
If one of the brothers gives it, you must know that it is the best!
I was about to swear that I would never write again
But without lyrics it's as empty as the subway late at night
As desert as "desert" without diacritics
Plus the bullies would have nothing to criticize
I say my poem in our language
As in another language it would be a bad expression
Time means money and look how the years go by
Without a doubt, Gwen Stefani's band
The only check I know is a small check-u
The only MC making money is mec-u
I admit that I will not stop writing
I am addicted to writing as a professional Davaist
In our language, the worst joke
If one of the brothers gives it, you must know that it is the best!
