| Havia plogut tota la nit
| It had been raining all night
|
| I els carrers s’han posat a brillar amb la claror
| And the streets have been lit up
|
| Ha fet de cop un vent glaçat i ha arribat la tardor
| It was suddenly an icy wind and autumn has arrived
|
| Damunt la tauleta de nit
| On the bedside table
|
| Hi havia encara el disc que ens fa de despertador
| There was still the record that makes us wake up
|
| I un altre que canta tot el que sempre ens ha fet por
| And another who sings all that has always frightened us
|
| M’arriba puntual una carta
| A letter arrives on time
|
| I em dius que a aquesta hora allà encara és de nit
| And you tell me that at this hour it is still night
|
| I que tens el cel tan a prop que pots tocar-lo amb els dits
| And that you have the sky so close that you can touch it with your fingers
|
| Jo em cordo pacient la camisa
| I patiently draw my shirt
|
| I trobo aquella taca de l’hivern passat
| And I find that stain from last winter
|
| D’una d’aquelles nits llargues a la universitat
| One of those long nights in college
|
| I després de sopar es va fer tard
| And after dinner it was getting late
|
| Parlant de les coses que se’ns escapaven
| Talk about rubbing salt in my wounds - d'oh!
|
| I dels somnis de tu i de mi i de tots dos
| And the dreams of you and me and both of you
|
| Lluny d’aquí i a la cantonada
| Far from here and around the corner
|
| I un altre matí s’arrossega
| And another morning he crawls
|
| I dibuixa un altre dia més sense tu
| And draw another day without you
|
| Però encara m’empentes l’esquena i no em sento perdut
| But I'm still pushing my back and I'm not lost
|
| I et penso curiosa i perduda
| And I think you're curious and lost
|
| En algun carrer estret d’una immensa ciutat
| On a narrow street in a huge city
|
| Escrivint els llocs on tu i jo encara mai no hem estat
| Writing places where you and I have never been before
|
| I després de sopar es va fer tard
| And after dinner it was getting late
|
| Parlant de les coses que se’ns escapaven
| Talk about rubbing salt in my wounds - d'oh!
|
| I dels somnis de tu i de mi i de tots dos
| And the dreams of you and me and both of you
|
| Lluny d’aquí i a la cantonada | Far from here and around the corner |
