| El jorn dels miserables (original) | El jorn dels miserables (translation) |
|---|---|
| Que poques paraules tinc, | I have few words, |
| i les que us dic són tan gastades. | and the ones I tell you are so worn out. |
| Caldrà buscar nous camins | We will have to look for new paths |
| on no calguin les paraules. | where words are not needed. |
| Que poca força que tinc; | How little strength I have; |
| tants de cops l’he malmenada. | I've beaten her so many times. |
| La vull tota per demà, | I want it all for tomorrow, |
| quan la gesta portí l’alba. | when the feat dawned. |
| Quanta ràbia que tinc, | How angry I am, |
| potser cal ser gos des d’ara; | maybe you should be a dog now; |
| quanta ràbia que tinc | how angry I am |
| i no vull pas oblidar-la. | and I don't want to forget it. |
| Que poca esperança tinc, | What little hope I have, |
| i potser caldrà deixar-la, | and you may have to leave it, |
| que no sigui que esperar | other than to wait |
| ens allunyi més dels actes. | take us further away from the acts. |
| Quanta misèria que tinc | How much misery I have |
| sota els peus damunt l’espatlla, | underfoot on the shoulder, |
| i la vull guardar amb mi fins al jorn dels miserables. | and I want to keep it with me until the day of the wretched. |
