Romanian

Ninsoare de adio

English translation

Farewell Snowfall

1. Aseara cand ne desparteam, aseara

1. Last night, when we were breaking up, last night

Tot mai era un pic de primavara

There was still a little bit of Spring left

Si-acum arunca ochii pe fereastra

Now, look out the window

A viscolit pe despartirea noastra

It snowed all over our break-up

Distanta s-a-nmultit cu alb de moarte

The distance multiplied with deathly white

Departe s-a facut foarte departe

Far has become very far

Si ninge intre noi ninsoare mare

And between us it's snowing a heavy snow

Ninsoare de sfarsit de calendare

An end-of-calendar snow

R: Si ochii nu mai au ce sa mai vada

R: And the eyes don't have anything left to see

Doar urme de jivine prin zapada

Only wild beasts' footprints in the snow

De ocna-i viscolul ce-mi arde rana

Like a prison's is the blizzard that burns my wound

Si-ascult de sub zapezi siciliana

And I'm listening under the snow to the siciliana

2. Si vor veni dezastre de tot felul

2. And all kinds of disasters will come

Precum m-anunta trist violoncelul

My sad cello announces me

Si harpa, si pianul ma omoara

Both the harp, and the piano are killing me

Reverberandu-mi fulgii de afara

Reverberating the snowflakes from outside to me

Mai latra undeva de frig un caine

A dog is barking somewhere from the cold

Dar tu ce faci in ziua fara maine

But what are you doing in the day with no tomorrow?

De fapt, de ce te-ntreb, cand eu din mine

Actually, why am I even asking you, when I

Mi-am interzis sa stiu de-i rau sau bine

Forbid myself from knowing whether it's bad or good

3. Si a venit ninsoarea alb-albastru

3. And the blue-white snow came

Sa parafeze totul cu dezastru

To seal everything with disaster

Sa iasa lupii, agentii foamei sure

For the wolves, agents of grey hunger

Din fiecare palcuri de padure

To come out from every spot of forest

Sa vina prin orase mari dihanii

For monstrosities to come to the big cities

Si caii aburind sa traga sanii

And for the steaming horses to pull sleds

Si posta, in aceste vremuri stranii

And for the mail, in these strange times,

Sa-ntarzie cu lunile si anii

To be late by months and years

R: Sa vezi si tu ce strigat tragic este

R: For you to see what a tragic shout it is

Sa nu mai dai de tine nici o veste

Not being able to hear any word of you

Pe ochi am doar cand ninge praf de raza

On my eyes I only have sunshine dust when it snows

Si drumurile noastre se blocheaza

And our paths are blocking off

Nici nu mai stiu de-i noapte sau e ziua

And I don't even know if it's day or night

E doar ninsoarea noastra de adio

Just our farewell snowfall.
