Translation of the song Cântec de oameni artist Valeriu Sterian

Mă duc ades’ cu gândul

My thoughts are often taking me

Prin veacuri, înapoi

Back throught centuries,

Să înţeleg istoria

So I can understand the history

Acestui neam de soi

Of this special nation.

Hei, aici la noi

Hey, here, where we are

Pe acest pământ

On this land,

Oameni buni au fost

Good people have lived,

Oameni buni mai sunt

Good people are still living.

Şi tot ce curge-n noi

And everything from inside us,

Iubire sau durere

Love or pain,

E din străbuni venit

It's from our ancestors,

Şi ce-i străbun nu piere

And what you inherit from you ancestors never fades away.

Hei, aici la noi

Hey, here, where we are

Pe acest pământ

On this land,

Oameni buni au fost

Good people have lived,

Oameni buni mai sunt

Good people are still living.

E timpul să-nţelegem

It's time to understand

Istoria de mâine

The history of tomorrow,

E timpul să-nţelegem

It's time to understand

Că pâinea naşte pâine

That bread gives birth to bread.1

Hei, aici la noi

Hey, here, where we are

Pe acest pământ

On this land,

Oameni buni au fost

Good people have lived,

Oameni buni mai sunt

Good people are still living.
