Translation of the song Iarbă rea artist Tudor Gheorghe
Iarbă rea
The weed
Luna când răsărea,
When the moon rose,
Mândra mea a venit
my sweetheart came
Să mă ia la cosit
to take me to crop
Iarbă rea.
the weed.
Mândra-i fulg, coasa-i grea,
My sweetheart is light as a snowflake, the scythe is heavy,
Albă, luna venea
White, the moon came,
Printre brazi, liniștit,
(She) glided
Luneca,
quietly, between the branches.
Printre brazi, liniștit,
(She) glided
Luneca.
quietly, between the branches.
Noaptea nu-i de cosit,
The night isn't made to crop
Știe ea, mândra mea,
She knows it, my sweetheart,
Din mers luna și ea
The moon has also stopped
S-a oprit.
its course.
Iarba rea ne-a vrăjit,
The weed has enchanted us,
Mândra n-a mai venit,
My sweetheart hasn't come anymore,
Mândra mea, iarbă rea,
My sweetheart, weed,
M-ai mințit!
You lied to me!
Mândra mea, iarbă rea,
My sweetheart, weed,
M-ai mințit!
You lied to me!
Unde ești, mândra mea?
Where are you, my sweetheart?
Luna a asfințit,
The moon has gone,
Câmpul a-ngălbenit
the field has turned yellow
Necosit.
without being cropped.
Mândra mea, iarbă rea,
My sweetheart, weed,
M-ai mințit!
You lied to me!
Mândra mea, iarbă rea,
My sweetheart, weed,
M-ai mințit!
You lied to me!
