Bon senyor - Lluís Llach traduction en anglais

Bon senyor

Bon senyor: quitequetacotecut
T′escric submís, no vull pas, quitequetacotecut
Ofendre-us ni desobeir, però sabeu
Com que sempre m'escapceu
Vull consultar si aquests mots
Són de grat al vostre cor
Que tant poèticament va tallant
I els mots són: quitepan
No hi busqueu segona intenció
Que no volen dir res, quitepan
Creieu-me que són inofensius i ben alienants
Permeteu, jo diria que no us heu de molestar
Bé sabeu que és gràcies a ma veu
Que vos teniu tant bon treball
I per tant jo diria que el meu pla és just i sa
Demanant un poc més de caritat
Per aquests mots que he inventat aïrats
I els mots són: quitepan
No hi busqueu segona intenció
Que no volen dir res, quitepan
Creieu-me que són inofensius i ben alienants
Oh! no em digueu que tampoc passaran
Oh! També aquest mots ha de tatxat?
Si voleu, si voleu
També els puc canviar: quitepan

My good Lord

My good Lord: quitequetacotecut
I write to you with all humility, I do not wish to, quitequetacotecut
Offend you or disobey you, but you know,
That since you always avoid me,
I wish to ask whether these words,
Are pleasing to your heart,
That I cut so poetically,
And the words are: quitebread
Do not look for a second meaning,
For they mean nothing, quitebread
Believe me that they are inoffensive and quite alienating
Allow me, I would say that you should not be upset
You know well that it is thanks to my voice,
That you have such a good job
And therefore I would say that my plan is fair and sound,
Asking for a little more charity
For these angry words that I have invented
And the words are: quitebread
Do not look for a second meaning,
For they mean nothing, quitebread
Believe me that they are inoffensive and quite alienating
Oh! Do not tell me that they will not pass either
Oh! Must these words also be crossed out?
If you wish, my good Lord,
I can also change them: quitebread
