| Eu ma intorc acasa beat,
| I'm coming home drunk,
|
| Cu cine ma-ntalnesc ma bat,
| I fight who I meet,
|
| Da' tata prin ograda merge…
| Yes, my father walks through the yard…
|
| Bine nu-i!
| It's not good!
|
| El niciodata n-a incercat
| He never tried
|
| Sa se apuce de fumat,
| Quit smoking,
|
| Dar azi, imi pare ca ar sa-ncerce…
| But today, I think he would try
|
| Treaba lui!
| His job!
|
| E pentru prima oara cand
| It's the first time
|
| Il vad pe tatal meu fumand
| I see my father smoking
|
| Si fara somn la ora asta.
| And no sleep at this hour.
|
| Am doua garduri de sarit,
| I have two jumping fences,
|
| S-ajung de unde am fugit,
| I get where I ran from,
|
| Deschisa dac-ar fi fereastra.
| Open if the window.
|
| Cu cat de gard mai greu ma tin,
| The harder the fence holds me,
|
| Cu-atat noroc e mai putin
| The less luck there is
|
| Da' de ma prinde tata-i jale…
| My father is sorry for me…
|
| D’amu’am spus!
| I told you so!
|
| El nici amu n-a priceput
| He didn't even understand
|
| Cureaua cu care m-a batut,
| The belt with which he beat me,
|
| De ce-i taiata bucatele
| Why cut his pieces
|
| Si eu nu-s!
| And I'm not!
|
| E pentru prima oara cand
| It's the first time
|
| Il vad pe tatal meu fumand
| I see my father smoking
|
| Si fara somn la ora asta.
| And no sleep at this hour.
|
| Am doua garduri de sarit,
| I have two jumping fences,
|
| S-ajung de unde am fugit,
| I get where I ran from,
|
| Deschisa dac-ar fi fereastra.
| Open if the window.
|
| E pentru prima oara cand
| It's the first time
|
| Il vad pe tatal meu plangand
| I see my father crying
|
| Si fara somn la ora asta.
| And no sleep at this hour.
|
| Am doua garduri de sarit,
| I have two jumping fences,
|
| S-ajung de unde m-am pornit,
| I get where I started,
|
| Deschisa dac-ar fi fereastra. | Open if the window. |
