Intro]
[Intro]
Hai, măi, joc de peste Jiu,
Come on, dance from beyond the Jiu,
Cât mai arde focu-n viu!
As long as the fire burns bright!
[Verse 1]
La fântâna de sub nuc,
At the fountain under the walnut tree,
Vin vecinii rând pe rând,
Neighbors come one by one,
Lelea-aduce colac cald,
Auntie brings warm bread ring,
Moșu-și pune suman blând.
Grandpa puts on his gentle felt coat.
Pe prispă, ulciorul plin,
On the porch, the pitcher full,
Busuioc la geam uscat,
Dried basil at the window,
Cine ține datini vechi
Whoever keeps old traditions
Ține satul luminat.
Keeps the village illuminated.
[Chorus]
Joacă, joacă, sârba-n sat,
Dance, dance, Sârba in the village,
Până-i cerul luminat!
Until the sky is bright!
Mână-n mână, pas ușor,
Hand in hand, light step,
Să răsune-n deal și-n dor!
Let it echo on the hill and in longing!
Joacă, joacă, oltenește,
Dance, dance, Oltenian style,
Cum din bătrâni se primește!
As it is received from the elders!
[Verse 2]
La seceriș, sub mărul mare,
At harvest, under the big apple tree,
Se-mparte pâinea din coș,
Bread is shared from the basket,
Fetele cos ii cu flori,
Girls embroider blouses with flowers,
Bătrânii spun basme frumos.
Elders tell beautiful tales.
De Sânziene, flori pe poartă,
On Sânziene, flowers on the gate,
La Crăciun, colind voios,
At Christmas, joyful carols,
Când tot satul stă la masă,
When the whole village sits at the table,
Niciun prag nu-i singuratic.
No threshold is lonely.
[Chorus]
Joacă, joacă, sârba-n sat,
Dance, dance, Sârba in the village,
Până-i cerul luminat!
Until the sky is bright!
Mână-n mână, pas ușor,
Hand in hand, light step,
Să răsune-n deal și-n dor!
Let it echo on the hill and in longing!
Joacă, joacă, oltenește,
Dance, dance, Oltenian style,
Cum din bătrâni se primește!
As it is received from the elders!
[Outro]
Hai, măi, joc de peste Jiu,
Come on, dance from beyond the Jiu,
Datina s-o ținem viu!
Let's keep the tradition alive!
Joacă satul, joc cu foc,
The village dances, I dance with fire,
Cât mai avem dor și loc!
As long as we have longing and a place!
