There are four things I can't figure out: 1) why is it so sweet to sleep during the day? 2) why is it so sweet to munch at night? 3) where does my money go? 4) where does the dust come from?

This is a great example of real Russian!

спится - sleeping, when you want to say that in some certain conditions, you sleep well or can't sleep at all: Мне хорошо спится в прохладе. I sleep well in the cool.

жрётся - this is not a real word, but it is made as спится and means "I feel good/bad when eating in such and such conditions"

деваются - here -ся describes the image of the money going by their own will, it wasn't me who spent all the money!

берётся - and the dust comes out of nowhere, too.

How come you speak romanian as an australian? Do you have family, a partner, friends or workmates that are romanians or is it just a personal interest?

Them

I don't know anyone in person who even speaks Romanian. I knew a couple of words already because of Dragostea din tei, and I knew it was the language with the intriguing hyphens, but I never considered learning it until these guys came along and before I knew it my playlists were full of Romanian songs and I was starting to pick up actual grammar and I figured I ought to do the thing properly. Now I have a 376 day streak on duolingo and an entire pastoral ballad in my brain and I regret nothing.

I love it so much. It makes me want to write poetry that doesn't start with foaie verde lol

LETRA

Perdona si te hago llorar Perdona si te hago sufrir Pero es que no está en mis manos Pero es que no está en mis manos Me he enamorado Me he enamorado Me enamoré

Perdona si te causo dolor Perdona si te digo hoy adiós Cómo decirle que te amo Cómo decirle que te amo Si él me ha preguntado Le he dicho que no Le he dicho que no

Soy honesta con él y contigo A él lo quiero y a ti te he olvidado Si tú quieres seremos amigos Yo te ayudo a olvidar el pasado

No te aferres No te aferres A un imposible Ya no te hagas Ni me hagas más daño Oh

Tú bien sabes que no fue mi culpa Tú te fuiste sin decirme nada Y a pesar que lloré como nunca Yo seguía de ti enamorada

Pero te fuiste Y que regresabas No me dijiste Y sin más nada ¿Por qué? no sé Pero fue así Así fue

Te brindé la mejor de las suertes Me propuse no hablarte ni verte Y hoy que has vuelto ya ves solo hay nada Ya no puedo ni debo quererte

Ya no te amo Me he enamorado De un ser divino De un buen amor Que me enseñó A olvidar Y a perdonar

Soy honesta con él y contigo A él lo quiero y a ti te he olvidado Si tú quieres seremos amigos Yo te ayudo a olvidar el pasado

No te aferres Y ya no te aferres A un imposible Ya no te hagas Ni me hagas más daño Oh-oh-oh Ah, ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah

(Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh)
