E ziua ta mămico
"This song is sung to mothers on International Women's Day, on the 8th of March. In Romania, it's celebrated on…
- March 1st, a day dedicated to women and a symbol of the arrival of Spring. It's celebrated with flowers and gifts.
- March 8th. It's celebrated the same way but dedicated to mothers. This song is a favorite.
- We don't sing it for our Mom's birthday." -Antoaneta
E ziua ta mămico
On Mother's Day, Mommy
Mother's Day Song
Mother's Day Song
(Romanian)
(English)
1. Am vrut să ţi culeg o floare,
Un mic ghiocel frumos,
Dar până la urmă moare
Şi nu e de folos.
De ziua ta, mămico,
În dar ţi am adus inima
Şi credemă, mămico,
Un dar mai frumos nu se putea.
De ziua ta, mămico,
În dar ţi am adus inima
Şi credemă, mămico,
Un dar mai frumos nu se putea.
2. Am vrut să ţi culeg steluţe
Să ţi fac un frumos colier,
Dar cine nu ştie oare,
Că n zori stelele pier.
De ziua ta, mămico,
În dar ţi am adus inima
Şi credemă, mămico,
Un dar mai frumos nu se putea.
De ziua ta, mămico,
În dar ţi am adus inima
Şi credemă, mămico,
Un dar mai frumos nu se putea.
3. Am vrut să-ţi culeg o rază,
S-o prind în al tău păr,
Dar tu străluceşti mai tare,
De dragoste şi dor.
De ziua ta, mămico,
În dar ţi am adus inima
Şi credemă, mămico,
Un dar mai frumos nu se putea.
De ziua ta, mămico,
În dar ţi am adus inima
Şi credemă, mămico,
Un dar mai frumos nu se putea.
1. I wanted to pick you a flower,
A beautiful snowdrop,
But eventually it dies,
And it is not useful.
On Mother's Day, Mommy,
I bring you my heart as a gift,
Above all dear Mommy,
My heart is the loveliest gift.
On Mother's Day, Mommy,
I bring you my heart as a gift,
Above all dear Mommy,
My heart is the loveliest gift.
2. I wanted to pluck the stars,
For a lovely necklace for you,
But always in the morning,
The stars fade away too.
On Mother's Day, Mommy,
I bring you my heart as a gift,
Above all dear Mommy,
My heart is the loveliest gift.
On Mother's Day, Mommy,
I bring you my heart as a gift,
Above all dear Mommy,
My heart is the loveliest gift.
3. I wanted to bring you the Sun,
As a hairpiece for your hair,
But you shine so much brighter
With love and longing there.
On Mother's Day, Mommy,
I bring you my heart as a gift,
Above all dear Mommy,
My heart is the loveliest gift.
On Mother's Day, Mommy,
I bring you my heart as a gift,
Above all dear Mommy,
My heart is the loveliest gift.
