THE SONG IN MP3

LYRICS

Desteapta-te, române

Desteapta-te, române, din somnul cel de moarte,
În care te-adâncira barbarii de tirani!
Acum ori niciodata croieste-ti alta soarta,
La care sa se-nchine si cruzii tai dusmani!

Acum ori niciodata sa dam dovezi în lume
Ca-n aste mâni mai curge un sânge de roman,
Si ca-n a noastre piepturi pastram cu fala-un nume
Triumfator în lupte, un nume de Traian!

Priviti, marete umbre, Mihai, Stefan, Corvine,
Româna natiune, ai vostri stranepoti,
Cu bratele armate, cu focul vostru-n vine,
« Viata-n libertate ori moarte! » striga toti.

Preoti, cu crucea-n frunte! caci oastea e crestina,
Deviza-i libertate si scopul ei preasfânt,
Murim mai bine-n lupta, cu glorie deplina,
Decât sa fim sclavi iarasi în vechiul nost' pamânt!

TRANSLATION

Wake up, Romanian

Wake up, Romanian, from your deadly sleep
Into which you've been sunk by the barbaric tyrants
Now, or never, your fate renew,
To which your enemies will bow.

Now or never let's give proof to the world
That in these veins still flows a Roman blood,
That in our chests we still maintain our pride in a name
The victor in his battles, the name of Trajan!

Watch on, shadows of highnesses, Mihai, Stefan, Corvinus,
The Romanian Nation, your great grandchildren,
With weapons in their arms, with your fire in their veins,
"Life in freedom or death!" shout all.

Priests, lead with your crucifixes! Because our army is Christian,
The motto is Liberty and its goal is holy,
Better to die in battle, in full glory,
Than to once again be slaves upon our ancient ground!
