Damunt d'una terra Over a land

---------------------------------------------------------------------------



Vailet, et diuen que a les guerres Boy, they say in wars

tan sols hi ha tristeses, there is only sadness,

no s'hi guanya mai. no one ever win.

Damunt d'aquesta terra encesa Over this lighted land

tot all• que ‚s feble everything weak

vol ignorar els mals wants to ignore all diseases



I en Maurici va escoltar And Maurici heard

per• segueix a terra sense fer-ne cas, but stays in land taking no notice,

perquŠ uns altres li han dit tant because others said so much to him

que la seva vida ‚s patir sota el fang that his life is suffer under mud



Recorda les raons que un dia Remember the reasons that one day

varen canviar els signes changed the signs

d'aquell temps passat. of that past time.

Ell ha marcat la teva vida He marked your life

amb una ferida with a wound

que tu has decorat you have embellished



I en Maurici va escoltant And Maurici keeps hearing

i pensa que ja sap and thinks he knows

el perquŠ dels mals. the cause to all diseases.

Per• se'n torna, i est... dubtant, But he comes back, and is doubting

i altres veus and other voices

ressonen tamb‚ al seu voltant. echo too around him.



Vailet, no siguis anarquista Boy, don't be anarchist

i ves a la conquista(*) and go to conquest

de l'honor m‚s alt, of highest honor,

que al teu costat tindr...s la for‡a cause you'll have the force by your side

que ens porta a l'ordre that takes us to order

i ens permet la pau. and allows peace.



I en Maurici sap molt b‚ And Maurici knows very well

que si nom‚s dubta poca cosa t‚ that if he just doubts he has little

En Maurici sap quŠ fer, Maurici knows what do to,

trobar... els companys he'll meet his fellows

i sortir... al carrer. and will go out the street.

NOTES:

- 'conquista' (conquering) is wrong, it should be 'conquesta'.

- 'encesa' can mean 'lighted' or 'burning
