Lyrics
[Verse]
Romania proud and high
Once you soared
Touched the sky
But now your soil feels cold and bare
Sold away to foreign air
[Chorus]
They took our roots
They broke the chain
Left us standing in the rain
Romania
Oh shadowed land
Will you rise
Or sink like sand
[Verse 2]
They bowed our elders
Stole their pride
Turned the tides
And cast aside
Our fields
Our hills
The home we knew
Now a dream that won’t come true
[Bridge]
Children born to serve
Not thrive
In a home where hopes don’t survive
Pagans laugh while futures burn
Will our glory ever return
[Chorus]
They took our roots
They broke the chain
Left us standing in the rain
Romania
Oh shadowed land
Will you rise
Or sink like sand
[Outro]
Echoes linger
Hearts still yearn
For the days we’ll one day earn
Romania
Hold your ground
Let your voice
Your soul resound
Romania proud and high
Once you soared
Touched the sky
But now your soil feels cold and bare
Sold away to foreign air
[Chorus]
They took our roots
They broke the chain
Left us standing in the rain
Romania
Oh shadowed land
Will you rise
Or sink like sand
[Verse 2]
They bowed our elders
Stole their pride
Turned the tides
And cast aside
Our fields
Our hills
The home we knew
Now a dream that won’t come true
[Bridge]
Children born to serve
Not thrive
In a home where hopes don’t survive
Pagans laugh while futures burn
Will our glory ever return
[Chorus]
They took our roots
They broke the chain
Left us standing in the rain
Romania
Oh shadowed land
Will you rise
Or sink like sand
[Outro]
Echoes linger
Hearts still yearn
For the days we’ll one day earn
Romania
Hold your ground
Let your voice
Your soul resound
