| Dragi prieteni, sus paharul, sa ne-nveselim;
| Dear friends, up with the glass, let us rejoice;
|
| Pentru sanatatea noastra cu toti sa ciocnim;
| For our health we all clash;
|
| Pune-ti grijile de-o parte, puneti-le-n cui,
| Put your worries aside, put them in your hands,
|
| Si cu cin' mi-e drag pornesc prin Bucuresti haihui.
| And with what I love, I'm leaving through Bucharest.
|
| La Baneasa la sosea sau chiar la Doi Cocosi,
| At Baneasa on the road or even at Doi Cocosi,
|
| De ciocniti un paharel cat sunteti sanatosi,
| If you have a glass while you are healthy,
|
| Sa nu mergeti cu masina, de bucluc sa dati,
| Don't go by car, don't worry,
|
| Politaiu va pune, neica, sa suflati.
| Politaiu will make you breathe.
|
| La sfarsit de saptamana, un sprit nu-i pacat,
| At the end of the week, a spirit is not a sin,
|
| Si cu bateria-n fata te simti mai barbat.
| And with the battery in front of you, you feel more manly.
|
| Da de nu sa bei apa sau chiar ceai,
| If you don't drink water or even tea,
|
| C-altfel te faci locatar cu domiciliu-n rai.
| Otherwise you become a tenant with a home in heaven.

|
| Dragi prieteni, sus paharul, sa ciocnim cu toti,
| Dear friends, up with the glass, let's all clash,
|
| Pentru soata sau copii si chiar pentru nepoti;
| For wife or children and even for grandchildren;
|
| De bei vin rozet tu o sa vezi viata in roz,
| If you drink rosé wine, you will see life in pink,
|
| Chiar si sfanta din poveste e frumoasa coz.
| Even the saint in the story has a beautiful tail.
|
| De bei Riesling sau Feteasca te crezi mai voinic,
| Do you think you are stronger than Riesling or Feteasca,
|
| Si te vezi inalt si chipes cat ai fi de mic;
| And you look tall and handsome as a child;
|
| Ai mai vrea sa ai si forta uriasului
| You also want to have the strength of the giant
|
| Cand bei vin Puterea Ursului.
| When you drink, the Power of the Bear comes.
|
| De bei vin de razaclaclie o sa uiti pe loc
| If you drink wine, you'll forget about it
|
| Ca ai fost certat cu socrul si-l saruti cu foc;
| That you were quarreling with your father-in-law and kissing him with fire;
|
| De nevasta ti-e plinuta, o vezi c-a slabit,
| Your wife is full, you see she's lost weight,
|
| Iara soacra ca-i frumoasa si cam tineric'.
| And the mother-in-law is beautiful and a bit young '.
|
| lailailalalalai lailailalalalai…
| lailailalalalai lailailalalalai…
|
| Hei, hei, ha. | Hey, hey, ha. |
| tine-o asa… n-o lasa… | keep it that way… don't leave it |
