Hey hey… e la te nane
Hey hey hey hey… e la te na
Ooh… oh… oh…
Ra! Ra!
Over hills, over valleys
The wind brings our dance! Ru!
Murmur full of fire
Overflowing the horizon
Shai lalai la… and the flight
Shai lalai la… brings sorrow
In the fire of a love’s game
It’s the dance from Moldova! Ru!
When you love, I caress
When you spin, I give my life
All with fire come in the game
It’s lucky
Ra, he hey, he hey
Come to the dance, come to the dance from Moldova
Ra, he hei, he hei
The dance is hot, the dance from Moldova is hot
Ra, he hey, he hey
Come to the dance, come to the dance from Moldova
Ra he hei, he hei
The dance is hot, the dance from Moldova is hot
The grean leaf of a pea plant, more
Jump, jump around
Come play our dance
Come shout louder, musician
So all people can hear it
Both the young and the older
Jump, jump around, more
Over valleys, over seas
Still spinning us with love
The dance from our ancestors
The fire on the field
People’s joy
