Talk:Trei culori

message: This is NOT the correct version of the national anthem lyrics of the Socialist Republic of Romania.
The words which the author posted is a Romanian patriotic song Treiculori, when the communist goverment adopted this anthem, they used the same music, but the original lyrics of Treiculori were been replaced.
:This is interesting, 211.75.91.19. But do you have any references about that? Links etc...? For example something that could be as authoritative as this one: image of the scores and first verse of Trei Culori, including the title "Imnul de Stat al Republicii Socialiste România" found on a page not far from glorifying Ceausescu? --dfrki 08:32, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, after actually reading the first verse on the image, I noticed that even though the beginning is the same, the end of the first verse is different. So I'm no longer sceptical about that. Can you provide the exact text?--dfrki 08:40, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  I added the first two verses. I don't know whetever there are some more. The communistb probably didn't like the "Let's live free in the country" reference. :-) Bogdan | Talk 08:44, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  Actually this passage is nowhere in the Romanian text. "Iar albastrul e credința" actually means: "Blue is the faith" and not "For many centuries they fought". --MichaelHaeckel (talk) 21:08, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

message: This is an attempt of rebuilding the true text while surfing around. I will add this as soon as it is complete to the main article.
:Trei culori cunosc pe lume
:Amintind de-un brav popor
:Ce-i viteaz, cu vechi renume
:In lupta triumfator
Here's one more verse. Is it the second one? How many more are there?
:Rosu, galben si albastru
:E al nostru tricolor
:Se inalta ca un astru
:Gloriosul meu popor
:: There are three verses. I added them directly to the article. Bogdan | Talk 08:54, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  Good job Bogdane! Now remains to update all other language pages, since they are based on the English one.--dfrki 09:18, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)
thread_title:  Re-building true text 

message: I prefer User:Laxori666's translation:
:Red is the fire of bravery
:Sacrifices that in eternity won't be lost
:Yellow, the gold of the plain
:And the blue of our sky 
to the present: 
:Red is the bravery's fire
:Sacrifices that in eternity won't be lost
:Yellow, the plain's gold
:And blue is our sky 
...but User:Defrenrokorit reverted it. Any one else have an opinion? I'd like to get a consensus rather than keep flipping back and forth. -- Jmabel 05:41, Jul 6, 2004 (UTC)
Here's the original text:
:Roşu-i focul vitejiei,
:Jertfele ce-n veci nu pier
:Galben, aurul câmpiei,
:Şi-albastru-al nostru cer.
I reverted it because the wording with "of" was too heavy to my taste. But I'm ready to find the best translation. The original wording is not by me, so I'm not "personally" affected ;-) --dfrki 05:58, 6 Jul 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Translation

message: The poetic translation is inaccurate in a number of places. For example, "So we may the land’s fruit gather" is completely lacking the actual meaning, "To live as masters in our land". Either add an extra lyric box with correct lyrics, or change the existing one. Roedagardet (talk) 07:06, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
