Onoare [English translation]

Lyrics:

It disappeared for a long time it seems

Any common sense, gesture or good behavior

Every dream is washed away since primary school

The system gives a big error

This country goes downhill by itself

The 'knights' have no honor anymore

Organized thievery in a big disorganization

And this is a big question mark

It's the third world, this is what you got

Escapes who can, the rest are used to it

Disconnected from living conditions

The youth asks itself what the fuck have they done wrong

I've met even happy Romanians, only outside

I've met even deceived Romanians, a country

I've met even peaceful Romanians, for the first time

But I've lost count how many times there's a clear lack of...

Chorus (x2):

Honor, (it's)

Something a lot of people don't have, (eh)1

They all trample themselves

Only for so many worthless things

They told us "Close your eyes, this is the future"

And almost all the nation went out in the street

When we won, we even made a hole in the tricolor2

Do you think we would have done the same if we had known the truth

We even invented the airplane

Even though everything flew from our hands the same like the heritage

Every Romanian celebrated in mourning

They didn't win a country, only a territory

Because everyone shoots for themselves, for spending3

For I don't know for how many springs

And it's nothing personal, but it was never any different

We didn't help each other, we didn't learn from our mistakes

To die for the country? Tell me, why should I do that?

When this country dies before me

And the toughest part it's that everyone feels it

That there's still a total lack of...

Chorus (x2):

Honor, (it's)

Something a lot of people don't have, (eh)

They all trample themselves

Only for so many worthless things

1. In the chorus, the first "e" it's used as an acronym for "este" that means "it is", the 2nd time it's only for the rhythm2. The tricolor is our flag, made out of the three primary colors, Blue Yellow Red. Alternative translation: "When we won, we even made a hole in our flag" or instead of "we even /made a hole in/ our flag" it can be also be translated as "we even /pierced/ our flag"3. also can be seen as " Because everyone is for themselves, for their own expenses", representing the selfishness of the people. But I didn't change it from 'shooting'. Try and make the connection to the video c':
