Text: Nelly Ciobanu. Hora Din Moldova (Dancing Moldova).
Ye ye… le la te nane
Ye ye ye ye… le la te na
Ooh… oh… oh…
Ra! Ra!
All the mountains, all the seas
All the winds are dancing hora
It’s a dance you’ve never seen
From my country called Moldova
Sai lalai la… si zborul (Shai lalai la… and the flight)
Sai lalai la… duce dorul (Shai lalai la… brings sorrow)
Dans de foc al iubirii joc (In the fire of a love’s game)
E hora din Moldova! Ru! (It’s the dance from Moldova! Ru!
Cand o iubesti te rasfata (When you love, I caress)
Cand o-nvartesti iti da viata (When you spin, I give my life)
Toti cu foc se avanta-n joc (All with fire come in the game)
E cu noroc (It’s lucky)
Ra, he hei, he hei (Ra, he hey, he hey)
Hai la hora, hai la hora din Moldova (Come to the dance, come to the dance from Moldova)
Ra, he hei, he hei (Ra, he hey, he hey)
Lute-i hora, lute-i hora in Moldova (The dance is hot, the dance from Moldova is hot)
Ra, he hei, he hei (Ra, he hey, he hey)
Hai la hora, hai la hora din Moldova (Come to the dance, come to the dance from Moldova)
Ra he hei, he hei (Ra, he hey, he hey)
Lute-i hora, lute-i hora in Moldova (The dance is hot, the dance from Moldova is hot)
Foaie verde-a bobului, mai (The green leaf of a pea plant, more)
Hop hop si-asa (Jump, jump around)
Pai jucati hora neamului (Come play our dance)
Si zi-i mai tare lautare (Come shout louder musician)
Sa se-auda-n lumea mare (So all people can hear it)
Joaca hora mic si mare (Both the young and the older)
Hop si-a sa, mai (Jump, jump around, more)
All the seas, all the winds
All the feelings that you get from hora
All the day, past and nowaday
Oh the dance you wanna play
Ra, he hei, he hei (Ra, he hey, he hey)
Hai la hora, hai la hora din Moldova (Come to the dance, come to the dance from Moldova)
Ra he hei, he hei (Ra he hey, he hey)
Lute-i hora, lute-i hora in Moldova (The dance is hot, the dance from Moldova is hot)
Ra, he hei, he hei (Ra he hey, he hey)
Hai la hora, hai la hora din Moldova (Come to the dance, come to the dance from Moldova)
Ra he hei, he hei (Ra he hey, he hey)
Lute-i hora, lute-i hora in Moldova (The dance is hot, the dance from Moldova is hot)
Ra! He hei (Ra! He hey)
Sai lai la… Hei (Shai lalai la… Hey)
Ra! He hei (Ra! He hey)
Sai lalai la… Hei (Shai lalai la… Hey)
Ra! He hei (Ra! He hey)
Sai lai lalalai lalai lalala he… (Shai lai lalalai lalai lalala he..)
