Dogs Were Barking by Gogol Bordello
I speak English so i know that part. It's all the stuff in between that I don't know.
Dogs were barking, guests were parking
and my wedding was about to start
Dogs were barking, monkeys clapping
Then I got up on table and I said:
I'll meet you 10:45 on the Broadway Canal
in a disco-radical-transglobal...
vyderzhit li, vyderzhit li apparatura?
comanja cooking up the original mixtura
s ulitzy do ulitzy the brilliant bassura
nasha mama---Diaspora!!!
Papa v Gogol Bordello!!!
Energija probuzdenija i ja!!!
Dogs were barking, monkeys clapping
bears were dancing and girls were cutting loose
Cops were lurking, kids were snarkling
then her father came up to me and said:
Vi bivali kogda-nibud na vistavke sobak?
She was a 5-45, nashe delo tabak...
Da ja zhe starij dobrij Opta-Hotza-Htzulo-Dzigit!
govorjat prosto bolnoi, da nichego zhe ne bolit!
Nasha mama---Diaspora!!!
Papa v Gogol Bordello!!!
Energija probuzhdenija i ja!!!
Remember things, things that are eternal...
remember things...you forgot those things
Nelzja ponjat, nelzja izmerit,
tolko prossat', i tolko vyt'!...
To make it all even more crooked
is impossibility of suicide
You pull the trigger, yet you are still standing...
just somewhere else, but with same dick in your hand.
And dogs were barking, and the guests were parking
and the monkeys clapping and girls were cutting loose
thinking of things, things that are eternal,
when her mother came up to me and said.
Dogs were barking, cops were lurking
and my dancing was about to start!
Monkeys clapping...
...Party!
...davaj tovarisch, like tovarisch would...
I met a crazy dancer,
a party tabashi
She held me by the hair, I held her by the ass
...nananana...
She was a crazy dresser...
...nananana...
She was a crazy dancer
Baja kuka napade original mixtura
s ulitsy do ulitsy to brilia bazhura
beat fun cool feel extoura
vyderzhit li vyderzhit apparatura!
...nananana...
And the dogs were barking, and the guests were parking
and the monkeys clapping and girls were cutting loose
thinking bout things, things that are eternal,
when her mother came up to me and said.
Dogs were barking.
Thank You!

I think u made a confusion! Romanians are not gypsys!
Yes, we're not Gypsy, but the song doesn't have lyrics in Romanian, Romany or Ukrainian. The non English part is Serbian.
The non English part isn't in Serbian, it's in another slavic language.
Sorry. You might be right.
langid.net says it's Slovenian.
I'm 100% sure it's not Serbian, if it was I would understand it.
About the site you gave, I get Czech and Slovenian as language.
I think it could be Czech... but I'm not sure!
Here are some atempts:

Isn't it russian?
"Nelzja ponjat, nelzja izmerit,
tolko prossat', i tolko vyt'!.."
With my poor knowladge on other slavic languages, tolko is a genuine russian word as well Russian infinitive is done almost exclusively with t+' and here this sounds mere transliterarion from russian cyrillic, taking out some softening signs "ь"
Yes, it's definitely Russian.
And another one thing! ROMANIAN IS NOT A SLAVIC LANGUAGE IT'S LATIN LANGUAGE.
Who said Romanian was Slavic? :/
Well, ppl still make a confusion between romani and romanian and also if Romania it's near slavic countries they might think that romanian it's a slavic language.
The non-English stuff in between is partly in Russian and partly in Romani (the Gipsy language). I can't translate the Romani part but below are the translations of Russian inclusions:
vyderzhit li, vyderzhit li apparatura? = will the equipment withstand?
s ulitzy do ulitzy = from street to street
nasha mama---Diaspora!!! = our mom is Diaspora!!!
Papa v Gogol Bordello!!! = our pa is in Gogol Bordello!!!
Energija probuzdenija i ja!!! = the energy of waking-up and me!!!
Vi bivali kogda-nibud na vistavke sobak? = Have you ever been to a dog show?
nashe delo tabak... = our things are in a bad way
Da ja zhe starij dobrij Opta-Hotza-Htzulo-Dzigit! = I'm the good old Opta-Hotza-Htzulo-Dzigit!
govorjat prosto bolnoi, da nichego zhe ne bolit! = they say I'm diseased but I don't have any disorder
Nelzja ponjat, nelzja izmerit = we can neither uderstand nor measure
tolko prossat', i tolko vyt'!... = we can only lose and wail
...davaj tovarisch = go ahead, comrade
