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. 04.12.2025 Andrei Guțu

Forgive Us
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. 04.12.2025 Andrei Guțu
The poem was originally written in Romanian and later translated into English.
