I'm not gypsy, I pretty much miss out on the lyrics, but I still love the song to death. These kind of songs made me change my mind on being a "hardcore rocker" and just appreciate good songs where I can find them.

It's nice to know that a non-Gypsy Romanian likes something Gypsy.

Please let other Romanians know that harming the weak in your society eventually leads to that harm creeping up the socio-economic ladder to harm many others.

It's not just me who says this, but also the world's leading minds. Try to find this book, available in both audio and print. For a book that covers complex topics, it's amazingly easy to read:

"A Demon Haunted World-Science as a candle in the dark" by Carl Sagan.

@saffronix Romanians don't harm the weak in their society. The Gypsies in Romania CHOOSE to not follow the cultural profile of the Romanian society. They generally don't believe in education and sending their kids to school. They are incredible opportunists that choose to salvage their living from petty theft to high corruption. Yes, they are vilified and discriminated by the Romanian non gypsy society but only slightly more than blacks are in USA or the French-Africans in France.

what is the meaning of the text?

[Fabipunkinola]

@Raakh123 It means - The caravan has no floor, I'm not beloved, I cut the red apple, half for you, half for me.

@mars31m very hard to make your type of people satisfied, that is the only true in you personality

you are so blind for the case when these people are harmed, evicted, excluded, destroyed, killed, even in their childhood! you must learn how people like you and your 'mentors' are envy, selfish, has mania for power and ready to abuse any of the social groups can compete with..find out how much your type of people deviant if in case of money or power issue appears (anywhere in the world!)
