(Lyrics are in Moldavian/Romanian, except for “Do svidanya” which means “Until we meet again” in Russian. )

Where are you going Little Mary,
With Gheaghea Vanea,
Wearing your little dress and shoes,
Well, good bye!
(x2)

[CHORUS:]
Jump, jump, jump like so
Don’t give yourself, don’t let go
Don’t give yourself, don’t let go
With Gheaghea Vanea.
Jump, jump, jump like so
Don’t give yourself, don’t let go
Don’t give yourself, don’t let go
Under Gheaghea Vanea.

Go, go behind the house
With Gheaghea Vanea
He’ll love you, and he’ll leave you
Well, good bye!

Don’t go over the hills
With Gheaghea Vanea,
‘Cause you’ll get pregnant again
And then, goodbye!

Don’t go to the orchard
With Gheaghea Vanea
‘Cause al lthe villagers are know
And then, goodbye!

Little Marry, hear my words:
It’s bad news getting involved
With Gheaghea Vanea
Well, good bye!

(chorus)

I wondered through the forest
With Gheaghea Vanea,
Picking flowers and berries
And goodbye.

I wondered through a garden
With Gheaghea Vanea,
And a bee bit me,
Well, goodbye!

Little Marry, don’t lie to me,
With Gheaghea Vanea,
‘Cause bees don’t have teeth
Well, goodbye!

You wondered through the trees
With Gheaghea Vanea,
Now sway and shut up
And goodbye.

(chorus)
