| Per als meus pares que són també els meus fills
| For my parents who are also my children
|
| Dona
| Woman
|
| Pel quadre d’ones de mar duu la dona als cabells
| The woman is wearing her hair in the sea
|
| Replegats retallets
| Collected clippings
|
| D’innocència amb gafeta color d’ocell
| Innocence with a bird-colored badge
|
| Va i ve pel vespre en un vaixell de neu i peixos
| He comes and goes in the evening on a snow and fish boat
|
| Que fan curumbeles
| What do curumbeles do
|
| I estrelles i rojos corals que neden fent quadrats
| And stars and red corals swimming in squares
|
| Els contra que va cercant l’estimat que escoltà
| The opposite of what the loved one was listening to
|
| Als seus somnis dient-li:
| To his dreams by saying:
|
| «Amor meu, vine soleta on no estic» i la doneta anà
| "My love, come alone where I am not" and the little girl went
|
| I tots li diuem que torne a port «ve tempesta cruenta»
| And we all tell him to come back to port "bloody storm is coming"
|
| I ella naviga I canta «I QUE SI MUIC!»
| And she sails and sings "I LOVE IT!"
|
| Home
| Home
|
| Libèl lules van passant junt a aquell jove estrany
| Dragonflies pass by that strange young man
|
| Que parlava amb els núvols
| That he was talking to the clouds
|
| Ell els contà que partí fa ja temps de ben lluny
| He told them that he had been away for a long time
|
| Perquè en la soledat una aueta escoltà que li deia:
| Because in solitude an aueta heard him say:
|
| «Ha acabat el temps d’aquesta espera tan llarga»
| "The long wait is over"
|
| I tots li diuem que torne correns
| And we all tell him to run back
|
| Que ve hivern i la neu ho farà tot blanc
| Winter is coming and the snow will be all white
|
| Només mira els teus cabells, el teu rostre al mirall
| Just look at your hair, your face in the mirror
|
| I les robes que dus dels camins que has anat
| And the clothes you wear from the roads you went
|
| Però ell camina i canta amb veu 'namorada:
| But he walks and sings in a loving voice:
|
| «QUÈ IMPORTA SI MUIC, si mort ja ho estava!»
| "WHAT DOES IT MATTER IF MUIC, IF HE WAS ALREADY DEAD!"
|
| I recolli la darrera flor d’aquell camí
| And pick the last flower from that path
|
| I a les robes alça per dur-la a l’estimada | And she puts on her clothes to take to her sweetheart |
