This song has a political hint , the lyrics can be fully understood only by Moldovan and Romanian citizens, even if the lyrics would be translated to English , one wouldn't understand the meaning of the song , if you don't know the history of Moldova and Romania. The meaning is that there are these two countries Romania and Moldova that in the past was one country , united and divided for several times throughout the history. The train shows that the passenger takes off from Chisinau (Moldova's capital city ) and travels to Bucuresti (Romania's capital city), they say that it looks like you go abroad, because we have different passports and have to pass the customs at the border , but at the same time they say it is like going from home to the same home, because we have the same language, the same traditions and the same history, the same kings in the past. They never pronounce in the song the names of the countries but this song is a programming for the reunification of these two countries. The traveler says that we are brothers but see each other one time in a hundred years , this phrase also has a political hint because once in a hundred years Moldova and Romania unite again in a single country , or divide again into two countries. That carpet has on it the portrait of the Great Stephan , a king of to both Moldova and Romania in 15 hundreds. And was a hero, and declared saint because he protected the orthodoxy , during his rule years he was in 50 battles against the Otoman Empire from which he won 47 of them. So it is a National hero for both Moldova and Romania. This song definitely sounds strange for foreigners but is plays with the feelings of both moldovans and romanians. It has a greater emotional charge than it seems at first sight.

That is entirely true, I felt all the emotions with this song and I felt represented with it. But it came as a surprise: as I knew Zdob si Zdub my whole life I prepared myself for a fun ride watching and listening to this. However, along with it, I got the messages one by one and I felt all of it: joy, happiness, sadness, and hope. Thank you for taking the time to explain all this.

I wouldn't say only understandable to Moldovans and Romanians, anyone who's familiar with Romanian history should get the lyrics, I did and I've never been near the countries

If you like Zdob Si Zdub: They have been to the Eurovision Song Contest before. My favourite one was in 2005 with the song "Boonika Bate Toba" (Grandma beats the drum) - check it out!

The story is about Romania and Moldova. Because Moldova was part of Romania, but after second World War 2 , Russia took it from us. Moldova is our sister. This song is about this! It is amazing song mixture with rock and traditional music.. Love Zdob and Zdub!!💙💛❤🤝💙💛❤
