Mi-a fugit dorul de-acasa, dorul
My longing has left home, longing
Cat a fost vremea frumoasa, dorul
While the weather was fine, longing
Si-a fugit cam dezbracat
And it left somewhat naked,
L-a prins vremea rea plecat
The bad weather caught him being away
Si mi-e teama ca-nghetat, dorul..
And I'm afraid he froze, longing
Dar s-a-ntors la saptamana, dorul
But it came back in a week's time, longing
Cu trei flori de gheata-n mana, dorul
Holdin three ice flowers in his hand, longing
Jumatate nins cu nea, jumatate viorea
Partly snowed upon, partly as a violet
Parca leganat de-o stea, dorul...
As if it were swang by a star, longing...
Partea jumatate ninsa, dorul
Its snowed half, longing
S-a topit de steaua-ncinsa
Got melted by the burning star
Si din dorul calator a ramas doar dorul dor
And the travelling longing only remained longing longing
Numai lacrima si zbor, dorul...
Only tear and flight, longing
Mi-a fugit dorul de-acasa, dorul
My longing has left home, longing
Cat a fost vremea frumoasa, dorul
While the weather was fine, longing
Si-a fugit cam dezbracat
And it left somewhat naked,
L-a prins vremea rea plecat
The bad weather caught him being away
Si mï-e teama ca-nghetat, dorul..
And I'm afraid he froze, longing...
