Romania National Anthem lyrics YouTube movie MIDI

RomaniaDeşteaptă-te, române!

1.
Deşteaptă-te, române,
din somnul cel de moarte,
În care te-adânciră barbarii
de tirani Acum ori niciodată
croieşte-ţi altă soarte,
La care să se-nchine
şi cruzii tăi duşmani.

1.
Wake up, O Romanian, from your deadly sleep
Into which you've been sunk by the barbaric tyrants
Now, as at no other time, create yourself a new fate,
To which your cruel enemies will also bow.

2.
Acum ori niciodată să dăm dovezi
în lume Că-n aste mâni mai
curge un sânge de roman,
Şi că-n a noastre piepturi
păstrăm cu fală-un nume Triumfător
în lupte, un nume de Traian.

2.
Now or never let's give proof to the world
That in these hands still flows a Roman blood,
That in our chests we still maintain our pride in a name
The victor in his battles, the name of Trajan!

About Anthem

The lyrics were composed by Andrei Mureşanu (1816-1863) and the music by Anton Pann (1796-1854). It was written and published during the 1848 revolution, initially with the name "Un răsunet" (An echo). It was first sung on July 29 of the same year in the city of Râmnicu Vâlcea. It was immediately accepted as the revolutionary anthem and renamed "Deşteaptă-te, române".

Since then, this song, which contains a message of liberty and patriotism, has been sung during all major Romanian conflicts, including during the 1989 anti-Communist revolution. After that revolution, it became the national anthem, replacing the communist-era national anthem "Trei culori" (Three colors) (photo: The Palace of the Parliament /source: Wikipedia)
