Lyrics and translation Maria Dragomiroiu - Fir-ai tu să fii, băiete




Fir-ai tu să fii, băiete
Curse you, boy
Fir-ai tu sa fii, baiete
Curse you, boy
Cu ciucurii de la bete
With a tassel on your hat
Fir-ai tu sa fii, baiete
Curse you, boy
Cu ciucurii de la bete
With a tassel on your hat
Ca ma sarutasi cu sete
As I kissed you so dearly
De-mi rupsesi rochita-n spete
That you tore my dress to shreds
Fir-ai tu sa fii, badie
Curse you, young man
Cu pana la palarie
With a feather in your hat
Foaie verde salba moale
Green leafy bushes
Mi s-au facut ochii floare
My eyes have turned to flowers
Tot uitandu-ma la vale
As I stare down the valley
Sa-l vad pe Marin calare
To see my beloved on horseback
Cu camasa alba, floare
With a white flowery shirt
Cu calul numai zorzoane
And a richly decorated horse
Cu ochii de viorele
With eyes of violets
Cu sanul de floricele
And breasts of blooms
Uite, neica trece dealu'
Look, my dear, he's crossing the hill
Ca-i cunoaste mandra calu'
His horse recognizes his mistress
Ca e calul balaior
For his horse is sorrel
Si pintenog de-un picior
And sprightly on one leg
Uite, neica trece raul
Look, my dear, he's crossing the river
Ca-i cunoaste mandra braul
His horse recognizes its mistress
Brau ales, cu floricele
A belt of flowers
Cusut de mainile mele
Embroidered by my own hands
Foaie verde salcioara
Green leafy willow tree
Marita-te, Marioara
Get married, my fair one
De-mi ia calea din picioare
So that you may leave my path
Si ochii de peste vale!
And your eyes from across the valley!
Marie cu ochii verzi
My beloved with green eyes
Trec la vale, nu ma vezi
I go down the valley, you don't see me
Trec la deal, raspuns nu-mi dai
I go up the hill, you don't answer
Ma mir ce inima ai
I wonder what kind of heart you have
