Translation of the song Am văzut un om artist Alexandru Andrieș

Am văzut un om,

I saw a man

Stătea în picioare,

standing there

Se uita la stradă,

watching the street,

Avea timp berechet...

he had a lot of time...

În jurul lui, oraşul

Around him, the town

Se-ndrepta spre seară,

went to evening

Cu maşini mergînd

with cars going

Din ce în ce mai încet...

slower and slower.

La un moment dat

At a moment,

Am format un număr,

I've formed a phone number

Prin faţa mea un nor

In front of me, a cloud

Defila haihui,

was wandering around.

O voce-mi vorbea,

A voice spoke to me

Nu-nţelegeam nimic...

didn't get a word

A cui era vocea ?

Whose was the voice?

Numărul, al cui ?

Whose was the number?

Casele de-aici

The houses around here

Nu-mi cunosc povestea,

don't know my story

Soarele apune

the sun is setting

Pictat pe perdea...

as if painted on the curtain.

Reclame imense

Big advertisments

Muşcă din noapte...

bite from the night.

Ce departe-s toate

So far are all

De lumea mea !

from my world...
