Lyrics
Te slăvim, Românie, pământ părintescMândre plaiuri sub cerul tău paşnic rodescE zdrobit al trecutului jug blestematNu zadarnic, străbunii eroi au luptatAstăzi noi împlinim visul lor minunat.Înfrăţit fi-va veşnic al nostru poporCu poporul sovietic eliberator.Leninismul ni-e far şi tărie si avântNoi urmăm cu credinţă Partidul ne-nfrânt,Făurim socialismul pe-al ţării pământ.Noi uzine clădim, rodul holdei sporimVrem în pace cu orice popor să trăimDar duşmanii de-ar fi să ne calce în pragÎi vom frânge în numele a tot ce ni-e dragÎnălţa-vom spre glorie al patriei steagUnofficial English translation
We glorify you, Romania, our FatherlandProud lands under your peaceful sky are yieldingThe cursed yoke of the past is smashedIt was not in vain that our heroic ancestors fought;Today we're fulfilling their wonderful dreamMay our people be forever brothersWith the liberator Soviet peopleMay Leninism be our lighthouse and force and momentumWe're following with faith our invincible PartyWe're creating socialism on our country's land.We're building new factories, we're increasing the yield of the landWe want to live in peace with all peoplesBut if our enemies come to trample usWe will defeat them in the name of everything we loveAnd we will rise to glorify our Fatherland's flagReferences
