Translation of the song Dragă Şeherezada artist Alexandru Andrieș
Dragă Şeherezada
Dear Sheherezada
Dragă Seherazada,
Dear Sheherezada,
Uite acolo-i grămada,
there is the lot,
Alege-ţi o pereche,
choose a pair
Da' vezi să nu fie veche,
but see if it ain't old
Vezi să nu fie murdară
See if it ain't dirty
Cum s-a-ntîmplat aseară,
as last night happened
Haide, începe-ţi povestea
Please, start your story
Că pe-urmă trecem la chestia a doua, haide
'cause then we go to the second thingy!

Şeicul din Bagdad
The sheik from Baghdad
Era un om foarte slab,
was such a weak man
Toată lumea ştia
Everyone knew about it
Şi numai de asta vorbea...
and only about it was talking
Cînd cineva prin Bagdad trecea
If someone from Baghdad was passing through,
Îndată, îndată afla
Imediately found out
Despre şeicul din Bagdad
about the sheik from Baghdad
Şi punctul lui foarte foarte foarte slab !
and his very very weak point.

Da' vezi că-ntr-o bună zi
But hey, one day
O comisie întreagă veni
an entyre commission had come
Şi merse drept la şeicul din Bagdad
and went straight to the sheik from Baghdad
Care-avea un punct foarte slab
that had a weak point
Şi zise Cum e posibil ca-n Bagdad
and said How can this possible that in Baghdad
Să fie şeic un om c-un punct slab,
is a sheik with a weak point
Cînd, în alte părţi, c-un punct slab
when in other places in the world, with a weak point
Nu ajungi nici măcar zugrav, tovarăşi !
you can't even be a painter, comrades!

Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
Da' vezi că şeicul din Bagdad
But hey, the sheik from Baghdad
Care-avea un punct foarte slab
that had a weak point
Ţinea prin sertare
was hiding in his drawers
Şi-un punct foarte tare...
even a strong point...
Aşa că comisia veni
So the commission had come
Şi, după ce se sfătui,
and after some advice,
Decise prin comparaţie
decided through comparison
Că-ntr-o astfel de situaţie, tovarăşi...
that in this situation, comrades....
