Lyrics and translation La Gossa Sorda - De Cara a la Paret




De Cara a la Paret
Facing the Wall
Eh, que venen a per tu
Oh, they're coming for you
S'han mudat amb camisa blava
They've put on their blue shirts
I venen a per tu
And they're coming for you
Tornen temps de lleis, de portes tancades
Times of laws and locked doors are back
Una Espanya, un Déu, tres provincias amables
One Spain, one God, three kind provinces
Un país sencer de cara a la paret
A whole country facing the wall
"¡Mira que pone en tu carnet!"
"Just look at what it says on your ID!"
El vencedor edifica la història
The victor builds the story
A cabotades l'enderrocarem
We'll tear it down with our heads
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim pintant el mur de versos
We live painting the wall with poems
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim la vida dins del gueto
We live our lives inside the ghetto
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Ei que venen a per tu
Oh, they're coming for you
S'emborratxen d'Espanya eterna
They're drunk on eternal Spain
I venen a per tu
And they're coming for you
Castigats per ser un perill pel projecte
Punished for being a threat to the plan
Platja de Madrid, sense llengua, ni tele
Beach of Madrid, no language, no TV
Cinc milions de ments de cara a la paret
Five million minds facing the wall
"Mira que pone en tu carnet"
"Just look at what it says on your ID!"
El vencedor edifica la història
The victor builds the story
A cabotades l'enderrocarem
We'll tear it down with our heads
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim pintant el mur de versos
We live painting the wall with poems
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim la vida dins del gueto
We live our lives inside the ghetto
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Segles de foscor
Centuries of darkness
Travessant la corda fluixa
Traversing the tightrope
Fets consumats
Accomplished facts
Pel desig de l'ocupant
By the occupant's desire
Viure malgrat tot
To live despite everything
En els noms de cada serra
In the names of every mountain range
En la pols d'aquesta terra
In the dust of this land
Que els teus pares van llaurar
That your parents tilled
Viure en les cançons
To live in the songs
Sobreviure a la derrota
To survive defeat
Minvar la seua força
To diminish their strength
Amb la nostra voluntat
With our will
Ni Almansa, ni Franco
Neither Almansa, nor Franco
Ni els fills que han tingut
Nor the sons they had
Martells colpejant contra el mur
Hammers pounding against the wall
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim pintant el mur de versos
We live painting the wall with poems
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
Vivim la vida dins del gueto
We live our lives inside the ghetto
Vivim de cara a la paret
We live facing the wall
