O mie
Aliona Moon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

O mie de-apusuri
Pierdute în mare
Pierdute în noi
Pe gene o mie de raze
De soare aduceau dimineți
Pentru doi
O mie de stele arzînd căzătoare
Priviri ne-au furat
În ceruri o mie
De nopți seculare
S-au tot spulberat
Noi am rezistat
 
Între soare și ploi
Se nasc mii de culori, dar noi
Vedem doar nori
Amintiri despre noi
Inșirat-am pe foi, apoi
Le-am distrus amîndoi

Între soare și ploi
Se nasc mii de culori, dar noi
Vedem doar nori
Amintiri despre noi
Inșirat-am pe foi, apoi
Le-am distrus amîndoi
 
O mie de lacrimi
Nu-mi spală durerea
De cînd te-am pierdut
De-o mie de nopți
Mă înghite tăcerea
Ea vrea să te uit
Îmi cere prea mult
Nu cred că este-n trecut
Fiorul ce l-am avut
Vreau un nou început
 
Între soare și ploi
Se nasc mii de culori, dar noi
Vedem doar nori
Amintiri despre noi
Inșirat-am pe foi, apoi
Le-am distrus amîndoi

Între soare și ploi
Se nasc mii de culori, dar noi
Vedem doar nori
Amintiri despre noi
Inșirat-am pe foi, apoi
Le-am distrus amîndoi
 
Credeam în dragostea ta
Speram că nu va seca
Credeam în visele mari
Dar ai ales să dispari
Credeam că nu e-n trecut
Fiorul ce l-am avut
Vreau un nou început
 
Între soare și ploi...
Vedem doar nori
Amintiri despre noi
Inșirat-am pe foi, apoi
Le-am distrus amîndoi

Între soare și ploi
Se nasc mii de culori, dar noi
Vedem doar nori
Amintiri despre noi




Inșirat-am pe foi, apoi
Le-am distrus amîndoi

Overall Meaning

Aliona Moon's song "O Mie" tells a story of lost love and the pain of trying to move on from it. The lyrics speak of a thousand sunrises and sunsets lost in the sea and in oneself, and how memories of the relationship are like a thousand rays of sunshine that once brought joy to the couple. The song talks about the many shooting stars that they have witnessed and how they have looked at each other, and how they have witnessed countless nights pass by. Despite all this, they managed to stay together, and the song emphasizes their unity in the midst of difficulties.


The next verses talk about their struggles after the breakup. They now see only clouds instead of the myriad of colors that can be found between the sun and rain. They have left all their memories behind on sheets of paper, and then proceeded to destroy them. The singer cannot forget the pain of losing their love, and a thousand tears can't wash away the hurt. The silence that engulfs them on nights without you makes it hard to forget.


However, the singer is still holding on to hope for a new start, for renewed love, and for a chance to start anew. The final verse is about looking to the future, hoping to find love again, and hoping to make it work this time.

There's a lot of different English translations out there, but I tried to make one that is as close as possible to the Romanian version, without many interpretations:

O mie / A thousand:

A thousand sunsets lost in the sea,
lost inside us.
On our lashes, a thousand sunrays used to bring mornings
for two.

A thousand stars, burning as they fell,
stole our sight.
In the heavens, a thousand secular nights
kept on shattering. We held on.

Chorus: (X2)
Between the sun and the rains thousands of colors are born,
but we only see clouds.
Memories of us, we strung on sheets of paper,
and then we both destroyed them.

A thousand tears doesn't wash away my pain,
since I lost you.
For a thousand nights I am swallowed by silence,
it wants me to forget you. That is too much to ask of me.

I don’t believe it's in the past,
the shock I felt.
I want a new beginning.

Chorus (X2)
Between the sun and the rains thousands of colors are born,
but we only see clouds.
Memories of us, we strung on sheets of paper,
and then we both destroyed them.

Bridge:
I believed in your love,
I hoped that it would not run dry.
I believed in those great dreams,
But you chose to disappear.
I believed it wasn't in the past,
the shock I felt.
I want a new beginning!

Chorus
Between the sun and...
the rains...
we only see clouds.
Memories of us, we strung on sheets of paper,
and then we both destroyed them.

Between the sun and the rains thousands of colors are born,
but we only see clouds.
Memories of us, we strung on sheets of paper,
and then we both destroyed them.

CosmogoldOfficial Singele meu intr-atit de demult a fost combinat cu cel slav, incit acum nu mai are o nici o picatura de cel roman.

@andreialex0909

JosephGallagher You opened the pandora box :))))
 My sincere advice, don't listen to Donnie. He is rusian and you know how is Rusia, propaganda (in this case, fake) is in their blood.

Republick of Moldova is Romania. All speak romanian.

@andreialex0909

Donnie i am the extremist?  I don't waste my time to compose astronomical text blocks and insulting in left and right!!! It's clear that you have rusian blood so shut up, you are making a total fool out of yourself.

One of the most operatic performances, without singing in operatic style. It's postively enchanting...
