Lyrics and translation Pavel Stratan - Daca Vrei

Daca Vrei

Daca vrei sa si-i in ritm -tini pasu,
Daca vrei s-ajiunji la timp - cu timpu-ntoarsi ceasu,
Daca vrei sa fasi un ghini - fali ghini!
Da daci vrei sa schimbi lumea - insepi di la tini!
Oamenii traiesc, cite-o viati-ntreaga,
De-antaleje ci di fapt nu trebu tat sa-ntaleagi.
Viata-i scurta, bei atunsi numa cand tii sati.
Si-nveti si trebu, da ti fasi ci li cunosti pi tati!
...Ci li cunosti pi tati... Ti fasi, ci li cunosti pi tati!
Uite unu din mesaje-i clar, suni rasi,
De-astepti timpu, el nu vine, timpu numa tresi!
Dijiaba ai un corp in forma de clepsidra scumpa,
Daci-ntrinsa nisapu aproape tat pi fund.
Cu cit in viati omu-i mai lenos decit cand doarmi,
Cu-atat mai des il deranjazi pe Doamne, Doamne.
N-am vrut sa fac o piesa atat de lunga, da in schimb,
S-o fac mai scurti pur si simplu, sincer n-am avut timp!
...N-am avut timp... Sincer, n-am avut timp!
Daca vrei sa si-i in ritm -tini pasu,
Daca vrei s-ajiunji la timp - cu timpu-ntoarcsi ceasu,
Daci vrei sa fasi un ghini - fali ghini!
Da daci vrei sa schimbi lumea - insepi di la tini!

If You Want To

If you want to be in rhythm - keep your steps,
If you want to get there on time - turn the watch in time,
If you want to make a guinea - make a guinea!
But if you want to change the world - start with you!
People live, for a lifetime,
To understand that in fact you do not have to understand everything.
Life is short, drink then only when you want to.
And study and learn, but pretend that you know them all!
...You know them all... You pretend that you know them all!
Behold one of the messages is clear, it sounds ridiculous,
If you wait for time, it will not come, time only passes!
In vain you have a slender, hourglass figure, my darling,
If the sand in it almost all leaks out.
The more idle a person in life than when he only sleeps,
The more often he disturbs you, Lord, Lord.
I didn't mean to make such a long piece, but instead,
To make it shorter simply, honestly I didn't have time!
...I didn't have time... Honestly, I didn't have time!
If you want to be in rhythm - keep your steps,
If you want to get there on time - turn the watch in time,
If you want to make a guinea - make a guinea!
But if you want to change the world - start with you!
