Lyrics and translation La Gossa Sorda - Som de la Marina

Som de la Marina

Xe, ja fa un grapat d'anys
Els senyorets canviaren de llengua
Per sentir-se importants
Ens miraven sempre
Per damunt del muscle
Amagueu els patos
Que venen de la capital

Can I speak valencian in my country?
Serà possible un mínim de respecte cap als meus?
Is possible respect for everybody?
I ja veus, no demanàvem més

Parlem català, som de La Marina
D'aquesta estimada terra on tanquem els ulls
I l'imperi ens assassina

Xe, mentalitat colonial
Senyorets de mitja Europa
Ara ens volen manar

A garrotades sempre
Parlàvem cristià
I a garrotades parlarem
Anglés, francés i alemany

Can I speak valencian in my country?
Serà possible un mínim de respecte cal als meus?
Is possible respect for everybody?
I ja veus, no demanàvem més

Parlem català, som de La Marina
D'aquesta estimada terra on tanquem els ulls
I l'imperi ens assassina

Parlem català, som de La Marina
D'aquesta estimada terra on tanquem els ulls
I l'imperi ens assassina
I l'imperi ens assassina

We speak english, si parla italiano
We speak english, si parla italiano, on parle français
Deutch esprechen, pa rusky, hablame en cristiano
Deutch esprechen, pa rusky, on parle français

Can I speak valencian in my country?
Can I speak valencian in my country?
Parlem català, som de La Marina
D'aquesta estimada terra on tanquem els ulls
I l'imperi ens assasina

Parlem català, som de La Marina
D'aquesta estimada terra on tanquem els ulls
I l'imperi ens assasina
On tanquem els ulls i l'imperi ens assasina
On tanquem els ulls i l'imperi ens assasina
On tanquem els ulls i l'imperi ens assasina

Marina's Song

My darling, it's been many years
Since our noblemen began to speak a foreign tongue
Thinking it would make them seem so grand
They looked down upon us always
From their lofty perches
Hide your children now
For the invaders are coming

Can I speak my native tongue in my own country?
Is it possible to show some respect for my people?
Is it possible to respect everyone?
You see, my love, we ask for so little

We speak Catalan, we are from Marina
From this beloved land where we close our eyes
And the empire murders us

My dearest, this colonial mentality
These noblemen from Central Europe
Now they want to rule us

With their relentless beatings
We used to speak our own language
And with these beatings we will be forced to speak
English, French, and German

Can I speak my native tongue in my own country?
Is it possible to show some respect for my people?
Is it possible to respect everyone?
You see, my love, we ask for so little

We speak Catalan, we are from Marina
From this beloved land where we close our eyes
And the empire murders us

We speak Catalan, we are from Marina
From this beloved land where we close our eyes
And the empire murders us
And the empire murders us

We speak English, you speak Italian
We speak English, you speak Italian, you speak French
We speak German, we speak Russian, speak to me in our own tongue
We speak German, we speak Russian, you speak French

Can I speak my native tongue in my own country?
Can I speak my native tongue in my own country?
We speak Catalan, we are from Marina
From this beloved land where we close our eyes
And the empire murders us

We speak Catalan, we are from Marina
From this beloved land where we close our eyes
And the empire murders us
Where we close our eyes and the empire murders us
Where we close our eyes and the empire murders us
On tanquem els ulls i l'imperi ens assasina
