| Vindran els anys i, amb els anys, la calma
| The years will come and, with the years, calm
|
| Que et pintarà als ulls una mirada suau
| That will paint a soft look in your eyes
|
| Et faran fer un pas i, després, un altre
| They will make you take one step and then another
|
| Seràs tota una experta a tirar endavant
| You will be an expert in moving forward
|
| Amb tant de temps hauràs trobat un lloc agradable
| In time you will find a nice place
|
| O ja estaràs un pèl mandrosa per buscar
| Or you'll be a little lazy to look for
|
| Rebràs tracte de senyora, o de iaia estranya
| You will be treated like a lady, or a strange grandmother
|
| Que té acollonits tots els nens del veïnat
| It is home to all the children in the neighborhood
|
| I seràs un sac de mals o seràs una roca
| And you will be a sack of evils or you will be a rock
|
| I els moments de mirar enrere et faran gràcia i et faran mal
| And the moments of looking back will make you laugh and hurt you
|
| I potser no seré el teu amic
| And I may not be your friend
|
| Ni tindré res a veure amb si ets o no ets feliç
| Nor will I have anything to do with whether or not you are happy
|
| Ja em veig de record mig trist que se’t creua pel cap
| I can already feel a half-sad memory running through your head
|
| Una mala tarda
| A bad afternoon
|
| I potser dormiré abraçadet
| And maybe I’ll sleep hugged
|
| A una dona a qui quasi no hauré explicat qui ets
| To a woman I almost didn't tell you who you were
|
| Potser tindrem néts malparits que se’n fotin de mi
| Maybe we'll have naughty grandchildren fucking me
|
| Quan no m’enteri de les coses
| When I don't find out
|
| Però, quan seré vell, seguiré cantant-te cançons, igual
| But when I'm old, I'll keep singing songs to you, anyway
|
| Caminaré lent i m’asseuré, a vegades, als bancs
| I'll walk slowly and sometimes sit on the benches
|
| Verset a verset convocaré el teu cos llarg i blanc
| Verse by verse I will summon your long, white body
|
| I em podran veure somriure una mica per sota del nas
| And they can see me smiling a little under my nose
|
| Que vinguin els anys! | Let the years come! |
| Aquí em té la calma!
| Here I am calm!
|
| Que em jugo amb la decadència de la carn
| That I play with the decay of the flesh
|
| Que un raconet del menjador farà d’escenari
| That one corner of the dining room will be the setting
|
| I que ningú sospitarà de qui estic parlant
| And that no one will suspect who I am talking about
|
| I que, quan seré vell, seguiré cantant-te cançons, igual
| And that, when I'm old, I'll keep singing songs to you, anyway
|
| No sé si estaré per garantir-te una gran qualitat
| I don't know if I'll be there to guarantee you great quality
|
| Però creuré en un verset i em distrauré intentant-lo allargar
| But I will believe in a verse and be distracted by trying to lengthen it
|
| I em podran veure somriure una mica per sota del nas
| And they can see me smiling a little under my nose
|
| I em podran veure somriure una mica per sota del nas | And they can see me smiling a little under my nose |
