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
