by Theodor Şerbănescu (1839 - 1901)

Dorul
Language: Romanian (Română) 
Bate vêntul bate tare 
Bate de la răsărit, 
Şi'mĭ aduce dor de mare 
Dor de lung călătorit.

Duce m'aş atuncĭ în lume, 
Fără să mă maĭ opresc. 
Prin pustiurĭ fără nume, 
Marĭ ca golu-mĭ sufletesc 

Duce-m'aş viaţa tótă, 
Ca să scap d'al vieţeĭ chin, 
Pân' în lumea ce-al-laltă, 
D'unde ceĭ duşĭ nu maĭ vin. 

Ş'atuncĭ pe pămênt, atunce 
Aceĭ care m'aŭ iubit, 
Să însemne cu o cruce, 
Locul unde m'am oprit.

Confirmed with Dorul tinerimeĭ: culegere de cântece nouĭ si vechĭ din cele ce se cântă mai mult in tŏtă țéra, Edițiunea VIII, Galați, Librăria G. D. Nebuneli & FII, 1891, pages 372-373.
