Anda Calugareanu - O Portocala

Oh, I love this song, i dunno why! Can someone make sure i understand it correctly though?

Iti mai amintesti iubirea mea
Do you remember, my love
Cand ne am intalnit cu dragostea
When we came across love
Pasari albe n zbor se leganau
White birds in flight where swinging (?)
Zmeie de carton se ridicau
Cardboard kites were rising up

Incercam sa vad ce nu vedeam
We tried to se what we didn't see
Incercam sa stiu ce nu stiam
We tried to know what we didn't know
Nu mi ai spus nimic si in cerdac
You didn't tell me anything in the balcony
Floarea florilor tu nu mi ai dat
You didn't give me the "flower of all flowers" (?)

Intr o zi mi ai daruit
One day you showed me
O PORTOCALA
An orange
Eram doi copii si aveam
We were two kids and we had
O PORTOCALA
An orange

Lumea toata ne parea
The whole worlds seemed to us
O PORTOCALA
An orange
Soarele era si el
Even the sun was
O PORTOCALA
An orange

Anii au trecut iubirea mea
Years have passed my love
Au trecut la brat cu dragostea
They've passes ??? with love
Drumurile lor le-am strabatut
We crossed their paths (?)
Zmeii de carton au disparut,
The cardboard kites disappeared

Dar te rog sa crezi nu pot uita,
But please believe I can't forget
Cel mai drag suras din viata mea,
The most dear smile of my life
Steaua stelelor nu-mi vei fura,
The star of stars won't still you away from me
Floarea florilor tu nu mi-ai da.
You wouldn't give me the flower of flowers

hi. good job

Incercam sa vad* ce nu vedeam
I tried to se what I didn't see
Incercam sa stiu* ce nu stiam
I tried to know what I didn't know
Nu mi ai spus nimic si in cerdac
You didn't tell me anything and in the balcony
Floarea florilor tu nu mi ai dat
You didn't give me the "flower of all flowers" (?)

Intr o zi mi ai daruit
One day you gave me (as a gift)
O PORTOCALA
An orange

Anii au trecut iubirea mea
Years have passed my love
Au trecut la brat cu dragostea
They've passed along with love
Drumurile lor le-am strabatut
We crossed their paths
Zmeii de carton au disparut,
The cardboard kites disappeared

But please believe I can't forget
Cel mai drag suras din viata mea,

You wouldn't give me the flower of flowers

there reffers to myself bcs of the verb "sa vad"/ "sa stiu". if had reffered to us then the verbr form would've been "sa vedem"/ "sa stim"

a darui = to give a gift

a merge la brat or a merge brat la brat = to go/walk arm in arm with...

hi. good job
