Traditional Romanian Music

 

Description

This piece of traditional Romanian music is about a man and a woman. The woman is always waiting for her husband, who has to travel to other cities and is never at home. Although she tells him that she will still be waiting, at some point she cannot bear it any longer and leaves him. I chose this song because many families are breaking up in Romania due to the social situation. Many men need to look for work abroad and cannot be with their families. My song is called Te asteptam, neica, luni seara.
