| Direm la veritat, sense repòs,
| We will tell the truth, without rest,
|
| per l’honor de servir, sota els peus de tots.
| for the honor of serving, under the feet of all.
|
| Detestem els grans ventres, els grans mots,
| We hate big bellies, big words,
|
| la indecent parenceria de l’or,
| the indecent appearance of gold,
|
| les cartes mal donades de la sort,
| the ill-fated cards of luck,
|
| el fum espès d’encens al poderós.
| the thick smoke of incense to the mighty.
|
| És ara vil el poble dels senyors,
| The people of the lords are now vile,
|
| s’ajup en el seu odi com un gos,
| he crouches in his hatred like a dog,
|
| lladra de lluny, de prop admet el bastó,
| thief from afar, up close admits the cane,
|
| enllà del fang segueix camins de mort.
| beyond the mud it follows paths of death.
|
| Amb la cançó bastim en la foscor
| With the song we build in the dark
|
| altes parets de somni, a recer d’aquest torb.
| high dream walls, sheltered from this turmoil.
|
| Ve per la nit remor de moltes fonts:
| Rumor has it from many sources at night:
|
| anem tancant les portes a la por. | we are closing the doors in fear. |
