Although the world would call me free
Each day the more her slave am I
For in her very way to be
There's I don't know what
I don't know why

Already from the day we met
Was my freedom mortal shot
She's but a girl as they, and yet
There's something more, I don't know what

No matter what we speak or do
The moments in sweet silence fly
For somehow there is music, too
When she is mute, I don't know why

So likely to my dying day
To follow her will be my lot
For in her sweet and candid way
There's I don't know why
I don't know what

-----De'or trece anii... (M. Eminescu)-----

De-or trece anii c__ trecură,
Ea tot mai mult îmi va plăce,
Pentru că-n toat-a ei făptură
E-un "nu ştiu c__" ş-un "nu ştiu ce".

M-a fermecat cu vro scânteie
Din clipa-n care ne văzum?
Deşi nu e decât femeie,
E totuşi altfel, "nu ştiu c__".

De-aceea una-mi este mie
De ar vorbi, de ar tăce;
Dac-al ei glas e armonie,
E şi-n tăcere-i "nu ştiu ce".

Astfel robit de-aceeaşi jale
Petrec mereu acelaşi drum...
În taina farmecelor sale
E-un "nu ştiu ce" ş-un "nu ştiu c__".
