Not with great news,
nor open gates wide,
Not with crowds gathered
and bells ringing bright.
It was born in a humble place,
where silence carried grace,
More than any blazing fire,
or the light of an altar’s face.
A fragile child,
between two simple souls,
The heavens bowed gently,
and angels guarded His steps whole.
Salvation asked for nothing,
It came simply to remain,
Through love and holy grace,
not through glory, power, or reign.
The shepherds came softly,
with steps of wonder and fear,
They felt, without knowing why,
that they were no longer alone or unclear.
On that holy night,
the world did not change at once,
But a living light was kindled,
one that forever will never be quenched.

Forgive us, Hearth, forgive us, Land,
For all our pride and fear unmanned.
We wandered lost in darkness deep,
Our deeds laid waste, our spirits weak,
So long without you, innocent Nation.
Forgive us, Mother, Father too,
For being far from each of you,
From warm embraces we once knew.
There, in forgetting, love grew cold,
And still we hoped, with hearts grown old,
That we would come again one day…
Return to roots, to home’s own way.
Forgive us, Lord, forgive once more,
For our blind faith we bowed before.
Grant us the strength, united, strong,
To carry in our souls lifelong
The love we had in former days —
For Country, Parents, Truth always.

Why be bad when we can be good,
When the world is a field of light under our wild steps?
Why not love when we are loved,
When others’ arms search for us, open and burning?
Why be saddened when others smile at us,
When flowers of hope grow in their eyes?
Why look for a storm when harmony is within us,
When the soul sings and its peace wants to be?
Why not pray for others, then for ourselves,
To be bridges of light in the empty darkness?
Unconditional love — a gift that does not die,
Respect — a key to joy and prosperity.
And then… why?
Maybe because we forget who we are in the rushing world’s nature.
But let this poem be your reminder:
That goodness grows in a moment,
That a smile changes a life,
That peace is born from small gestures,
And that love… is everything.

You in towers, we in the mud,
You sell the country and laugh at us.
Nepotism and money, the law is useless,
The people cry, and you shine more beautifully.
Positions for relatives, wealth under the table,
Those who fight below receive no hope.
Empty words, ***** promises,
This is how you hold power: through bitter lies.

Throughout the centuries, this nation has endured storms, famine, and hard times. And yet, every time, even when people felt lost, an unseen force lifted them up. It was not found in gold, nor in weapons, but in their faith — the faith that gave them patience, hope, and the strength to go on.
Every prayer whispered in secret, every act of kindness left as a legacy to their children was a flame burning in the darkness. This faith did not fade, even when people lost their homes, their fields, or even their loved ones. It lived on in every child who went to school, in every person who placed work and honesty above fear, in every heart that believed tomorrow could be better.
This nation has always known that true strength does not come from wealth, but from the invisible roots of faith. And even as time passes and many things are lost, these roots continue to grow in silence, reminding people never to forget who they are and where they come from.
The faith of this nation is like a thread of light passing through generations — unseen, yet impossible to break. It gives them the power to smile, to fight, and to love, even when everything seems lost.
May the Good Lord guide us, our families, and our country on the path of peace and prosperity.

Each face carries a star,
each voice weaves its own calling.
Differences do not separate us,
but give us wings to look into the distance.
Our steps intertwine upon the earth,
hands meet without fear.
Gentle peace grows like a quiet river,
cleansing the stones of hatred beneath the surface.
The colors of the world spread together,
each flower speaks a different language.
Harmony does not demand submission,
but understanding and courage in every step.
Each heart brings peace,
each thought becomes light.
Diversity is the source of strength,
and love flows without fear, without guilt.

Some remain silent.
They watch as everything falls apart
and say only: “It is what it is.”
They lower their eyes,
close their hearts,
and move on,
as if the land were not theirs.
Others, however,
once trudged through mud up to their knees,
with fear in their chest and faith in their heart,
held the flag like a child
and asked nothing.
They did what had to be done.
They had no networks, cameras, or trophies,
only a country in their soul
and a silence that still sings today.
The indifferent live lightly,
but those who fought
live deeply,
in a history that does not boast,
but breathes through the moist earth of their graves.
Sometimes, I think:
if their silence were to speak,
it would simply ask us,
“What have you done with our sacrifice?”
And perhaps then
those who sit in soft chairs
would feel shame as a prayer,
and those who still believe
would light a flame
not only for the dead,
but for the living,
so they may awaken.

Across hills and plains, from the Dniester to the Tisza, flows the heart of our country, a love that never breaks. In every village, in every old house, echoes the voices of our martyrs, whispering of longing, of kin, of the Romanian soul. Every fortress, every monument, every corner of the land is a treasure of heritage, a testament to our ancestors and their love for the nation.
Let us cherish the language that binds us and the songs that soothe us, honor the parents who gave us roots and a home, and love our neighbors, for in every face reflects the visage of the whole nation. Under the sky of Romania, we are one united heart, and every territory — from sea to mountains, every village, every city, every hill — is a page in the living poetry of our people.
Let us love our country as we love our parents, preserve the ancestral home as a sacred altar, honor the past, and dream of the future. And in our voices, may it always resound: Romania is ours, whole and eternal.
With appreciation,

Renounce for God the thought of pride,
Humility is the straight path, where immortality resides.
Modest is the one who in His mystery finds solace,
And instead of earthly gold, receives forgiveness and grace.
Love your neighbor, honor your parents dear,
In their warm tears lie treasures sacred and clear.
Not in fleeting riches, but in the gift of love,
The pure soul rises to heaven above.
Seek peace in all, and leave worldly desire behind,
For in the heavenly, the Lord hides all that’s divinely kind.
Who renounces the world, towards Him shall tread,
And in His holy grace, a new life blossoms ahead.

He steps into the classroom like a temple of thought,
where every word becomes a seed of dreams sought.
Learning is not a burden, but a flame that silently glows,
from every child, a universe of possibilities grows.
With patience, he weaves unseen threads of knowing,
turns mistakes into paths and questions into showing doors.
He teaches not just lessons, but shapes character bright,
and sparks courage in each gaze, igniting inner light.
The teacher is the architect of time and hope,
a lighthouse illuminating unseen roads to cope.
Through him, the school pulses, and generations rise,
learning to trust their power and the beauty in life’s skies.
