Puncte cardinale

Bate vântul, bate de la sud,
Mă trezesc din vis cu părul ud,
Se făcea că-ntorc antena dinspre noi spre ei,
Spre a prinde imagini color, Canalul trei,
Dar se schimbă starea vremii şi-s pe casă dus
Şi renunţ să prind postul, căutând calea spre apus.
 
De la Nord, de la Sud
Bate vântul, nu-l aud,
De la Vest, mă rog sau de la Est,
Ca o formă nouă de protest.
 
Bate vânt, ce vânt adie sus !
Şi mă-ntorc cu totul spre apus,
Vai de mine ce imagini vin prin cablul meu,
Informaţie multă, dar şi filme rulând mereu,
Fără pauză-i programul şi cât am de-ales !
Urmăresc dar nu critic eşichierul politic prea des.
 
De la Nord, de la Sud
Bate vântul, nu-l aud,
De la Vest, mă rog sau de la Est,
Ca o formă nouă de protest.
 
Bate vânt, un vânt de răsărit,
Rece ca o lamă de cuţit,
Lumea veche, lumea nouă, semn arătător,
Cine-mi ară hotarul şi salută de pe tractor ?
Conotaţia e simplă de la gând la ţel,
Pun o mână pe umăr dar îngrop casca de oţel.
 
De la Nord, de la Sud
Bate vântul, nu-l aud,
De la Vest, mă rog sau de la Est,
Ca o formă nouă de protest.
 
Bate vânt, răcoare de la nord,
Bate-n piept, dar nu-i atac de cord,
Nealiniat politic Polul este-n veci,
Mai aproape de mine, mai aproape de tine, deci.
Ce înseamnă Nord-Atlantic ştii preabine azi,
Pasul pare nesigur, dar pe strada-ngustă cazi.
 
De la Nord, de la Sud
Bate vântul, nu-l aud,
De la Vest, mă rog sau de la Est,
Ca o formă nouă de protest.
 
Translation

Cardinal points

Wind is blowing from the South
I'm waking up from the dream with my hair wet
Happened to turn the antenna from us to them
to catch colourful images, the channel 3
but the weather is changing and I'm on the roof
and give up on tuning the channel searching the way to the West.
 
From North, from South,
Wind is blowing, I don't hear it
From the West, or East, whatever
like a new form of protest
 
The wind is blowing, what a wind is blowing high!
And I'm turning to the West
Oh, my, what images are coming through my cable
Too much informations, but even films rolling all over
the program is without pause and so many to choose from!
I'm following but not criticizing the political chessboard too often
 
From North, from South,
Wind is blowing, I don't hear it
From the West, or East, whatever
like a new form of protest
 
A wind is blowing, a wind from the East
cold as a knife's edge
the old world, the new world, indicating sign
who's harvesting my border and saluting from the tractor?
The conotation is simple from thought to the goal
putting a hand on the shoulder but I'm burying the steel helmet
 
From North, from South,
Wind is blowing, I don't hear it
From the West, or East, whatever
like a new form of protest
 
A wind is blowing, cold from the North
is beating in the chest, but it ain't a heart attack
The Pole is never to be politically alligned
Closer to me, closer to you
What's NATO, you know it good now
The step seems uncertain, but you're falling on the narrow street
 
From North, from South,
Wind is blowing, I don't hear it
From the West, or East, whatever
like a new form of protest.
