Treceţi batalioane române Carpaţii [English translation]
A historic song reminds us
That we will be brothers forever,
A battle song as old as The Union
You, my fellow citizens, listen to this:
Romanian troops, cross The Carpathian Mountains,
To war, with leaves and flowers
Victory awaits you, your brothers await you too
Thinking fondly about the mountain passes.
Ardeal, Ardeal, Ardeal is calling us
We are the only hope!
Boy, kiss your parents and your brothers
And then let’s go to war!
Ahead, ahead towards The Great Union
Let us break the unfair boundary,
Let us cross The Carpathians, we need Ardeal
Even if we could be buried alive.
They accomplished The Union with the swords, oh, the hearts they had!
To Alba we were all heading,
All the people of the country agreed with the union,
The will of the people.
We were all Romanian troops,
Moldavia, Muntenia, Ardeal,
The natural union with the motherland
Was the rightest ideal.
This is the story of our Ardeal
And of our brave people
The whole history with battles and sacrifice
Lives in today’s union.
Justice and peace watch over The Carpathians
And there are leaves and flowers all across the country
The victory is ours, they are our brothers,
Long live the three colours!
We want peace for our country and world peace,
And if they cast a curse on us
The Carpathians and its brothers will come together
Following the supreme lider.
Romanian troops, cross The Carpathian Mountains,
To weapons, with leaves and flowers
Victory awaits you, your brothers await you too
Thinking fondly about the mountain passes.
