Translation of the song lyrics Al mar! - Manel

Al mar! (original)

Tu i jo hem sopat en bons restaurants,
tu i jo hem ballat a la llum d’un fanal,
tu i jo volavem en un Ford Fiesta groc,
tu i jo hem cantat a la vora del foc,
tu i jo hem buscat coses similars,
tu i jo hem tingut el cap ple de pardals,
tu i jo dalt de la nòria,
tu i jo i la nostra història,
però tu i jo no ens hem banyat mai al mar, al mar, al mar.
Plantem les tovalloles, convido a un gelat,
juguem amb alegria, esquivem passejants.
A l’horitzó es divisen les veles
d’uns nens que fan optimist a la cala del costat.
Dormo una estona, a la que bufa la mar,
així estirada se’t veu espectacular
llarga i blanqueta a la sorra llegint
intrigues vaticanes de final inesperat.
Es abusiva tanta calor.
T’incorpores i et poses bé el banyador,
amb el peu calcules com està l’aigua
i tot està llest per tal que entrem al mar.
Així doncs si un dia vens i passes per aquí,
i sí malgrat la feina trobem un matí,
no em perdonaria mai, no podria assumir,
no agafar-te amb la moto i que no fessim camí,
molt lluny d’aquí, a l’altra banda del món,
hi ha un xiringuito amb quatre pins al fons,
tu i jo asseguts a la barra d’un bar,
sona bona música i som davant del mar.

(translation)

You and I had dinner at good restaurants,
you and I danced in the light of a streetlight
you and I were flying in a yellow Ford Fiesta,
you and I sang by the fire,
you and I have been looking for similar things,
you and I had our heads full of sparrows,
you and me on the ferris wheel
you and me and our story,
but you and I have never bathed in the sea, in the sea, in the sea.
We plant the towels, I invite you to an ice cream,
we play with joy, we dodge walkers.
The sails can be seen on the horizon
of optimistic children in the cove next door.
I sleep for a while, where the sea blows,
that way you look spectacular
long and whitish in the sand reading
Vatican intrigues of unexpected end.
So much heat is abusive.
You get up and put on your swimsuit,
with your foot you calculate how the water is
and everything is ready for us to enter the sea.
So if one day you come and go,
and yes despite the work we find a morning,
I would never forgive myself, I could not assume,
don't get caught on the bike and let's not make our way,
far away from here, on the other side of the world,
there is a bar with four pins in the background,
You and I are sitting at a bar,
good music sounds and we are in front of the sea.
