Coses de Sant Antoni

Sant Antoni de Gavarda
Féu un miracle en Antella
Caigué una auela en lo riu
Si no la trauen s'ofega.
Pare sant Antoni
Tragueu-me d'ací!
I si no van homes
Ara encà està allí.
I és el poble de Gavarda
Un poble molt ditxós
I allà per advocat tenen
A sant Antoni el gloriós.
El sant fa miracles
El prodigi és d'ell!
Tot el que mor jove
Mai no es farà vell.
Un xiquet anava a escola
I feia un aire molt fort
Li va caure una rajola
Que li pegà en tot lo tos.
La mare afligida
Al sant s'aclamà!
Agarra al xiquet
I es mor a l'instant.
Un pescador molt devot
A mal hora anà a pescar
Se li girà la barqueta
I se me posa a nadar.
I l'home s'aclama
En fervor al sant!
Si no toca terra
Encà està nadant.
Una fadrina patia
Un fort dolor de queixal
I al sant Antoni li deia
Que li curara eixe mal.
El sant al moment
D'ella s'apiadà!
I li caigué en terra
Tota la bancà.
Un bou acaçava un home
Prop de l'ermita del sant
I l'home al sant Antoni
Demana auxili plorant.
I el bou que el va vore
Li tirà cornà!
Més gelat que un rave
Allí se'l deixat
Un coix i un tort anaren
La salut a demanar
I el tort es va quedar cego
I el coix no pot anar.
I a un geperudet
Que allà s'encontrà
Li va eixir la gepa
Darrere i davant.
Sant Antoni de Gavarda
No vull demanar-te més
Perquè si tot ens ho dones
Tu et quedaràs sense res.
Vull salut i perres,
De treball ni un pèl,
I pa tu sencera
La Gloria i el Cel.

Things of Saint Anthony

Saint Anthony of Gavarda
You performed a miracle in Antella
A grandma fell into the river
If they don't pull her out, she will drown.
Father Saint Anthony
Help me out of here!
And if no men come
She will still be there.
And the town of Gavarda is
A very lucky town
And there, as their patron, they have
Saint Anthony the glorious.
The Saint works miracles
The wonder is his!
Whoever dies young
Will never grow old.
A little boy went to school
And there was a very strong wind
A roof tile fell on him
That hit him on the head.
His mother, distressed,
Lamenting to the Saint!
She holds on to her son
And he dies instantly.
A very devout fisherman
Went fishing at a bad time
His little boat overturned
And he starts to swim.
And the man prays
In fervor to the Saint!
If he doesn't reach land
He will still be swimming.
A young woman suffered from
A bad toothache
And she said to Saint Anthony
That he should cure her of that pain.
The Saint at that moment
Took pity on her!
And her entire jaw
Fell to the ground.
A bull was chasing a man
Near the Saint's hermitage
And the man to Saint Anthony
Asks for help, crying.
And the bull that saw him
Charged him!
Colder than a turnip
He was left there
A lame man and a one-eyed man went
To ask for health
And the one-eyed man went blind
And the lame man couldn't walk.
And to a hunchback
Who was there
His hump came out
Behind and in front.
Saint Anthony of Gavarda
I don't want to ask you for more
Because if you give us everything
You will be left with nothing.
I want health and money,
Not a bit of work,
And for you, the whole
Glory and Heaven.
