En la que el Bernat se't troba (original)

I ahir a la nit vam conèixer tres dones altes i elegants
i amb una em vaig posar d’acord
vam conversar, vam riure i hem fet l’amor.
I m’ha parlat del seu país i de les coses que fa aquí
amb un castellà força estrany, sorprenentment fluid.
«Quin nas més gros que tens».
m’ha dit,
la dona alta des del llit, i a la paret ha assenyalat
un quadre verd que de nena havia pintat.
I «Que bonic!
Que bonic!
Que bonic!"M'he dit,
quina nena més dolça devia ser,
quin plaer haver-la pogut conèixer fa molt de temps.
«Si tanques els dos ulls», m’ha dit,
«si et quedes quiet a dins del llit, t’ensenyaré una cançó
que a casa em cantaven per anar a dormir.
Parla d’un bosc i d’un senyor que hi viu aïllat entre oms i flors
i es protegeix dels mals humans amb un exercit d’animals»
I «Que bonic!
Que bonic!
Que bonic!"m'he dit,
i quina veu més fina que té,
quin plaer haver-la pogut conèixer fa molt de temps.
Però el Bernat m’ha dit que t’ha vist per Barcelona,
que t’acompanyava un home molt alt,
que li has preguntat si encara ens freqüentàvem
i que m’envies molts records.

(translation)

And last night we met three tall, elegant women
and I agreed with one
we talked, laughed, and made love.
And he told me about his country and the things he does here
with a rather strange, surprisingly fluent Spanish.
"What a bigger nose you have."
he told me
the woman high from the bed, and on the wall has pointed
a green picture he had painted as a child.
And “How beautiful!
How nice!
How beautiful! ”I said to myself,
what a sweet girl she must be,
what a pleasure to have met her so long ago.
"If you close both eyes," he told me,
"If you stay in bed, I'll show you a song
that at home they sang to me to go to sleep.
He talks about a forest and a gentleman who lives in it isolated among elms and flowers
and protects itself from human evil with an army of animals "
And “How beautiful!
How nice!
How beautiful! "I said to myself.
and what a finer voice he has,
what a pleasure to have met her so long ago.
But Bernat told me he saw you in Barcelona,
accompanied by a very tall man,
that you asked him if we were still dating
and that you send me many memories.
