   • 1848, Andrei Mureșanu, Deșteaptă te, Române

     Acum ori niciodată să dăm dovezi în lume

     Că-n aste mâni mai curge un sânge de roman

     Și că-n a noastre piepturi păstrăm cu fală-un nume

     That in these veins still courses a Roman blood

     And that in our hearts we hold with pride a name
