This is NOT the correct version of the national anthem lyrics of the Socialist Republic of Romania.
The words which the author posted is a Romanian patriotic song Treiculori, when the communist goverment adopted this anthem, they used the same music, but the original lyrics of Treiculori were been replaced.
Ok, after actually reading the first verse on the image, I noticed that even though the beginning is the same, the end of the first verse is different. So I'm no longer sceptical about that. Can you provide the exact text?--dfrki 08:40, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
I added the first two verses. I don't know whetever there are some more. The communistb probably didn't like the "Let's live free in the country" reference. :-) Bogdan | Talk 08:44, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Actually this passage is nowhere in the Romanian text. "Iar albastrul e credința" actually means: "Blue is the faith" and not "For many centuries they fought". --MichaelHaeckel (talk) 21:08, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
...but User:Defrenrokorit reverted it. Any one else have an opinion? I'd like to get a consensus rather than keep flipping back and forth. -- Jmabel 05:41, Jul 6, 2004 (UTC)
Here's the original text:
Roşu-i focul vitejiei,
Jertfele ce-n veci nu pier
Galben, aurul câmpiei,
Şi-albastru-al nostru cer.
I reverted it because the wording with "of" was too heavy to my taste. But I'm ready to find the best translation. The original wording is not by me, so I'm not "personally" affected ;-) --dfrki 05:58, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)
As I know, the complete words of Trei Culori has 7 verses. I have posted all the words and an English translation into the article. -- Kibinsky 06:53, Dec 20, 2004 (UTC)
I haven't looked closely at this new addition, but any translation that turns cunosc pe lume into "I'm acquainted" is very loose. Maybe done by someone who knew only a little Romanian & didn't know that the first person singular form and third person plural were identical? Anyway, someone may want to have a look at this. I'll get there eventually if no one else does. -- Jmabel | Talk 08:37, Dec 20, 2004 (UTC)
Interesting: the translation is by Andrei Bantaş -- no slouch, I use his Romanian-English dictionary -- but it's very, very loose. I'll leave his in place, since he's something of a "name", but I'm trying to start a more precise translation. I've done two verses so far, I'd appreciate if a native Romanian speaker would check, I'll continue over the next few days. -- Jmabel | Talk 02:56, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC) My attempted translation is now complete, could use checking. -- Jmabel | Talk 22:54, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
The RSR National Anthem had a couple a versions. The version included in the article seems to be the last one, and it was in use since the beginning of the '80. The first RSR "adapted" version is dated from 1977. --Vasile 00:21, 26 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Well, any ideas about that? I found this "last version" only. --Kibinsky 10:09, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)
The translation is inaccurate for the sake of being poetic[edit]
The poetic translation is inaccurate in a number of places. For example, "So we may the land’s fruit gather" is completely lacking the actual meaning, "To live as masters in our land". Either add an extra lyric box with correct lyrics, or change the existing one. Roedagardet (talk) 07:06, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
