about

This was the first Romanian song that I learned the lyrics to. My friend Robert Dakowicz introduced me to it, and I fell in love. It is the third time recording it and I hope that I have done this amazing song justice. -Kjartan

lyrics

Cine-a pus cârciuma-n drum,
Ăla n-a fost om nebun,
Cine-a pus cârciuma-n drum,
Ăla n-a fost om nebun,
Ăla a fost om cu minte,
Cine-o intră-n ea să cânte
Şi necazul să şi-l uite,
Măi, doruleţ, măi.
Ăla a fost om cu dor greu
Şi-a cântat cum cânt şi eu,
Şi-a cântat cum cânt şi eu,
Măi, doruleţ, măi.

Cine-a pornit dragostea
Slabă minte mai avea,
Dragostea e mare foc
Şi nu scapi de ea deloc,
Ea nu are legământ
Şi te bagă în mormânt,
Şi te bagă în mormânt,
Măi, doruleţ, măi.
Căci dorul şi dragostea
Au înnebunit lumea,
Au înnebunit lumea,
Măi, doruleţ, măi.
