The Romanian part of this song is really beautiful, so sad it makes me want to cry. It is difficult for me to translate as the girl singing has a very heavy Transylvanian accent, but it is something like: "You're a good girl, you're a big girl, but you have no soul. Come out, come out, so all of the gypsies can see you, come out, come play with me!" and the refrain something like "Oh God, what is wrong with me, oh God, what is wrong with me?" Very beautiful, yet very sad.
nu gasesc ce e cu mine!! dupa melodia assta =) ... то ли ведьмы , то ли цыгане , а мы нихуя не знаем .... =) translatiom: can be whitches , can be gypsies ... but we don't know shit =) ai aiiaiaiiaa
Hej, Polacy, nie wiedziałam, że tylu z nas zafascynował gypsy punk :) Pozdrawiam! For me this piece is what I expect from music. I don't know exactly, what it is, but it gives me peace and my soul is now filled. I simply love this song!
If you listen to their music and then worry about who is a gypsy and who is not then do me a favour: Grind all of your Gogol cd's in to a very fine dust and snort it. Maybe in that manner you will understand what this music is about.
@OmletteDuFromage1 Romanians don't hate them.. the few exceptions who do, do it because they don't understand them or had random few bad experiences with them; the writing "jesty" is done like this to hint at how it should be read internationally (it is according to the International Phonetic Alphabet); it helps people pronounce it
A friend turned me on to this amazingly unique band in... What was it, '03? Somewhere around there... The first song he ayed me was "Bordello Kinda Guy" and I got hooked instantly! This song in particular reminds me of my last summer as a kid/civilian after highschool graduation; we were all GB fans and this one night we were high ASF after getting stoned and we went to go wonder through the woods and this was what I had playing in my head-it was such a beautiful day, like we had zero cares in the world 😄 then come August I shipped out to "The School of Hard Knox" (Ft. Knox, KY) for 16wks of training to be an M1 Abrams tanker, and that was the end of my care free life as a long haired stoner lol
The accent isn't heavy,actually it's one of the cleanest voices I heard. Translated: "You're the girl that doesn't have soul,you have no soul. Come,girl,outside so the gypsies can see you." the refrain kicks in. "You are a girl,a good girl,which with me you don't play." and the refrain. The actual translation would make no sense as here they repeat some words,and invert them,in the second half of the proposition.
holy shit! thank you for translating that! this is one of my all time favorite gogol songs and i've always wondered if i would ever find out what they were saying! you have made my fuckin' WEEK! thank you!
@ferdin12 because Roma aren't the only true gypsies...ask any sinti! and there are like 7 other ethnic groups that are commonly referred to by the name as well. Con Son?
@KostaVV she's a former member of the band; you can find information about members on wikipedia; her name is Andra Ursuta (percussion, backing vocals, Dance, general performance) - Romania
land of what? unfortunately you don't know what are you are talking about. romanians are no longer romanians ad gypsies are no longer gypsies in this land. if all our gypsies would play like gogol bordello i would worship them
in this band we have : * Eugene Hütz - Ucraina * Serghei Ryabtsev -Rusia * Yuri Lemeshev - Rusia * Oren Kaplan - Israel * Thomas Gobena - Etiopia * Eliot Ferguson - SUA * Pamela Jitana Racine - SUA * Elizabeth Sun - Scotia, born from chinez parents * Pedro Erazo - Ecuador so... where is that romanian gyspy?? you see here? srry my bad english but when i see more ppl tell me : you are romanian, you are gypsy .... wtf?!?!? ppl gypsy come from india ;)
Guys... Don't you see the irony in my posting? On the one hand you say it doesen't matter that Gogol B. use a wrong spelling and then on the other hand you critisize me for the same thing? *rolleyes* Of course I mean "write" and I hope you got my point now, that it's fucking important to write correctly, even if you use a foreign language!
@Andrew301 Yes, terribly disappointing. So clean, so...predictable. Nothing like GB used to be like. They are still great live though, it just doesn't come through the CD. Very unmemorable..unlike all their other ones.
@Andrew301 So what? It doesn't change the fact that it's spelled wrong. It just proves that Gogol Bordello didn't inform themselves about the romanian language...
@drag0nfig0 I read in an article Hutz moved to Rio de Janeiro Brazil and he was talking about the scene being different. Samba-like. So I blame it on that. They lost the drummer too. I saw them in ATX and they had some new guy.
WHAAAAT I was not especting them to actualy sing romanian...tho they are not like the gypsies i know and see... il make a exception and not hate and despise.
@Paramantus Eugene uses wordplay a lot... this might be a mistake but he might be making a pun, a statement, or something else... I don't know for certain in THIS case.. but that being said he does it an awful lot.
great music, but hey guys: if you use a foreign language, please wright it correctly... o.O it's "tu esti fata" and not "tu jesty fata", for god's sake...
Of course Google can't help you. I don't know what made you think that this is the way you spell in Romanian. Even "Tu jesty fata" is wrong. It's "Tu eşti fată" J isn't pronounced like the ee from speed in Romanian. Also, we use the letter y very rarely.

To me this is one of the best Gogol Bordello songs there is. I love it so much!
Luv this tune. Never gets old.

...and even in Azerbaijan! I’m in Azerbaijan right now and sending this message from Baku! Huzzah!

You can always come back brother
2 hours of sleep and still completely shitfaced, driving to work with a cigarette hanging from lip.....smiling from ear to ear.
@sIr3nn3 Man, its a shame shes no longer with the band, she has the best voice Ive heard in a long time
Sunt uimita de faptul ca am auzit romana in piesa asta
The accent isn't heavy,actually it's one of the cleanest voices I heard.
Translated: "You're the girl that doesn't have soul,you have no soul. Come,girl,outside so the gypsies can see you." the refrain kicks in.
"You are a girl,a good girl,which with me you don't play." and the refrain. The actual translation would make no sense as here they repeat some words,and invert them,in the second half of the proposition.
There’s no actual accent, the female singers are Romanian.
"You're the girl who doesn't have a soul"
holy shit! thank you for translating that! this is one of my all time favorite gogol songs and i've always wondered if i would ever find out what they were saying! you have made my fuckin' WEEK! thank you!
Wakes up the gypsy in me :P Love it.
Um...that "Romanian folk music" is Băieşi music, so it fits perfectly "with their gypsy style" since Băieşi are a branch of Romani.
My favorite Gogol Bordello song, thanks for the upload!
lovely song, does the group do anymore like this? I usually listen to Gogol songs when I feel angry but this is a relaxing song
+blakespower Oh yes...Sun Is On My Side, Tribal Connection....tons more. Explore!
who is this lady who sings in the latter part? god, her voice is amazing
Najpiękniejsza
@ferdin12 because Roma aren't the only true gypsies...ask any sinti! and there are like 7 other ethnic groups that are commonly referred to by the name as well.
Con Son?
Any of you has any idea who sings the Romanian part? The name of the Romanian girl...
love this song! great music!
@TheFunkyBrain
Romani gypsy, not Romanian.. there's differentiation between the two. Learn it.. generally it's not wise to confuse the two.
em loop infinito na minha cabeça
@Paramantus I don't really think it matters. We all came here to listen to good music so lets just listen to some good music.
Does anyone know what the original song of the Roman part of the song is?
GENIAL COMO SIEMPRE....VIVA GOGOL BORDELLO ...VIVA MEXICO !!!!
@KostaVV she's a former member of the band; you can find information about members on wikipedia; her name is Andra Ursuta (percussion, backing vocals, Dance, general performance) - Romania
my teacher is awesome, he showed me gogol
Try my buddies from Iasi, Romania.. They have a couple of videos here on TH-cam. Name of the band is Sukar Nation. Good stuff.
land of what? unfortunately you don't know what are you are talking about. romanians are no longer romanians ad gypsies are no longer gypsies in this land. if all our gypsies would play like gogol bordello i would worship them
re....cunosc imi place Voooodka, mai toarna, nene inc-un SHAT !
The thief Mazare form Romania bring me here :))
the right way to write the title is "tu esti fata"
i'm romanian lol
No problem, stop by my bar, I will buy you a beer! Noroc!
Pret de cateva secunde poti asculta aici si refrenul la Cantecul broastei testoase.
what means jesty???
you mean you're reading Nikolai Gogol's books?
Isn't Gogol in the standard curriculum, being a world classic and all?
"man" is sometimes used to mean "human".
all the univers, the voice all people and her head all connexion fuck the language, the best are give us all!
in this band we have :
* Eugene Hütz - Ucraina
* Serghei Ryabtsev -Rusia
* Yuri Lemeshev - Rusia
* Oren Kaplan - Israel
* Thomas Gobena - Etiopia
* Eliot Ferguson - SUA
* Pamela Jitana Racine - SUA
* Elizabeth Sun - Scotia, born from chinez parents
* Pedro Erazo - Ecuador

Guys... Don't you see the irony in my posting?

Palinca si punk rock
Megafuckinggreatsong!
SZACUN!
@Andrew301 Yes, terribly disappointing. So clean, so...predictable. Nothing like GB used to be like. They are still great live though, it just doesn't come through the CD. Very unmemorable..unlike all their other ones.
@SearchingForBlood oh yeah .. in the comment .. it's roma .. sorry ... i thought that in the song..
@Andrew301 So what? It doesn't change the fact that it's spelled wrong. It just proves that Gogol Bordello didn't inform themselves about the romanian language...
They aren't even ROMA, I don't understand how you can consider them gypsies...
@Paramantus I'm sure there's another meaning behind it. Send them a letter about it. I'm sure they'll appreciate it.
@drag0nfig0 I read in an article Hutz moved to Rio de Janeiro Brazil and he was talking about the scene being different. Samba-like. So I blame it on that. They lost the drummer too. I saw them in ATX and they had some new guy.
WHAAAAT I was not especting them to actualy sing romanian...tho they are not like the gypsies i know and see... il make a exception and not hate and despise.
Slava Ukraini 2022!
@felipemanonegra Sir, this is ripped straight from the album and this is what it says on the back of the album.
@Andrew301 ok you're right....but in romanian language...nevermind:).....ahhhhhhh and you call me sir????
@Paramantus Eugene uses wordplay a lot... this might be a mistake but he might be making a pun, a statement, or something else... I don't know for certain in THIS case.. but that being said he does it an awful lot.
why are these people mixing romanian folk music with their gypsy style? i love gogol bordello, but this is like a bad joke!
@drag0nfig0 I wouldn't doubt it. Have you heard the new cd? I can't get into it. Super Taranta and everything before that is amazing.
@Andrew301 you know that the romanian language is soo diferent in every latitudr right
@SearchingForBlood he said Roma, not Romanian.. there's a difference sucker.
great music, but hey guys: if you use a foreign language, please wright it correctly... o.O it's "tu esti fata" and not "tu jesty fata", for god's sake...
You as well. It's write, not wright.
@Andrew301 you know that the romanian language is soo diferent in every latitude right
@Andrew301 Considering they are not really Gypsy...it's probably a mistake on GB's part.
you know it!:>
Eugine was born from gypsy parents inside of russia.
* inside Ukraine
@MarinellaMarina I think it was one of the back up dancers, Elizabeth or Susan.
@Andrew301 and you were nice....good luck...and regarde from ....ROMANIA:)
@bogdan0205 Man, I really hope so. That way we all realize we're all unified in some way huh
@felipemanonegra Yeah, I was trying to be nice about it.
Dayum,,,, They are great day or night.... can't stop the east infection , GB Rules!
Of course Google can't help you. I don't know what made you think that this is the way you spell in Romanian. Even "Tu jesty fata" is wrong. It's "Tu eşti fată" J isn't pronounced like the ee from speed in Romanian. Also, we use the letter y very rarely.
That's because it isn't in standard Romanian. The original song is in Boyash, which has this strange ortography.
💌
@Paramantus Buy the CD and look on the back.
Tu esti fata care nare, nare nare suflet nare!
Nu inteleg tot
@Andrew301 It was Rolling Stone.
da,pizda means the same :)) word taken from the slavic language
To woman is needed to transport it :)...
well...you're right, but if you do you should help me out?
@sIr3nn3 oh cool, thanks for the name and the info
yeah , happend to me too , it's never too late though :)
i think you intented to say the oposite
@VoXCorvuZ I do.
@bogdan0205
the term is Bodhisattva
@Paramantus It's spelled *criticize*
someone should post the guitar chords for this
@bogdan0205 the term is Bodhisattva
the corect name is tu ESTI fata.......
Hai ROMANIA !
juste pour le nom....
The last few lines aren't in Romanian tho.
Google is no help with "To li ved'my, to li cygane. A my ne huja ne znaem. Aajo ne huja ne znaem"
what about every woman?
Balkan ftw B)
yes it does
LOL
what?
