Verse 1

I'm a young girl, I have to be good

She's ashamed and she's cold, so said the priest

In Romanian, 'părinte' usually means 'parent' but it can also mean 'priest', similarly to how 'father' is used in English to address priests

But I'm fed up to sit at the corner of the table

Today I got dressed in that beautiful dress

Chorus 1

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

Note: In Romanian, unlike in English, double negatives do make sense

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

Verse 2

Say, whatever they say, I don't care

Why stand aside when my soul dances

I'm starting to like it after the cage

Or: I'm starting to like it after being caged (restrained)

And I'm going to taste a bit, tonight, of the brandy

Chorus 2

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

Chorus 3

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

At this wedding there's only wedding music

Everyone's talking, nobody's listening

I've worked so much since the morning

I'm going to dance at least once in my life

SONG MEANING

In La Nunta Asta Lia Taburcean invites us straight onto a lively Moldovan wedding dance floor. The young narrator has spent the whole morning helping out, obeying her parents and trying to keep a “good girl” image, yet the pull of the music is irresistible. Surrounded by chatter and traditional rhythms, she decides that tonight she will finally let loose, put on her beautiful dress and dance at least once in her life.

The song is a joyful rebellion against quiet corners and whispered judgments. While relatives talk over one another and nobody really listens, the singer finds freedom in movement, a sip of rakiu and the simple pleasure of living in the moment. It is a playful celebration of self-expression, reminding us that after all our hard work we deserve to step onto the floor, ignore gossip and let our souls dance.
