The Strays

Tara-i o gradina,

The country is a garden;

Bucurestiul - o floare.

Bucharest, a flower

Eu merg pe trotuar cu labele murdare.

I walk on the sidewalk with dirty feet

Ce nesimtire! Sunt un magar;

What insensitivity! I’m an ass

De fapt, sunt un caine comunitar’.

In fact, I’m a stray dog

Nivelul de trai a crescut uluitor,

The standard of living is greatly increased

Porcul e gras si pomul roditor.

The pig is fat and the trees fruitful

Intreaga Europa a venit sa vada

From across Europe they came to see

Da' m-a gasit pe mine pe strada.

But I found myself on the street

Castraţi-mă, castraţi-mă,

Castrate me, castrate me,

Sau, dacă vreţi, eutanasiaţi-mă,

Or, if you like, euthanize me,

Pentru că singura voastră problemă

Because your only problem

Sunt eu, câinele comunitar'.

Politica e un nufar imaculat.

Politics is lily white.

Vaca da laptic, gaina ousor,

The cow gives milk, a hen lays eggs

Numai eu nu ma incadrez in decor.

but I don’t fit in the scene.

Pe unde te uiti - numai fete zambitoare.

Wherever you look, only smiling faces.

Tara este pur si simplu infloritoare.

The country is simply flourishing.

Gata cu somaju',

Enough with unemployment,

cu inflatia, cu tot.

with inflation as well.

Va rog, dati-mi una peste bot!

Please, hit me on my snout!
