Paroles et traduction Marala - Verderol

Verderol

Hi havia un verderol
Amagat davall s'albada
Que entonava una tonada
Que brillava abans que es sol.

Refilava sa cançó
Per cridar s'enamorada
Que tenia ales de fada
I plomes com de cotó.

Verderol, canta per mi.
S'estimada feia així:

Verderolet, estimat,
Ara que s'acaba es dia,
Repeteix sa melodia
Que de tu m'ha enamorat.

I ell sonava sa cançó
I encisava s'estimada
Que va quedar enverinada
De picada d'escurçó.

Verderol, canta per mi.
Canta, que no vull partir.

I cantava, es verderol,
Refilava i repetia:
Visc per viure't, vida mia,
No viuré si visc tot sol.

Quan la va veure partir
Va entonar sa veu darrera.
Pus mai ha tengut cantera,
Pus mai l'han tornat sentir.

Verderol, canta per mi.

Verderol

There was a greenfinch
Hidden beneath the dawn
Who sang a melody
That shone before the sun.

He polished his song
To call out to his beloved
Who had fairy wings
And feathers like cotton.

Greenfinch, sing for me.
His beloved did this:

Little greenfinch, my love,
Now that the day is ending,
Repeat your melody
For I have fallen in love with you.

And he sang his song
And enchanted his beloved
Who was poisoned
By the bite of a viper.

Greenfinch, sing for me.
Sing, for I don't want to leave.

And he sang, the greenfinch,
Polished and repeated:
I live to live for you, my love,
I will not live if I live alone.

When he saw her leave
He sang his last voice.
For he never had a quarry,
For he has never been heard again.

Greenfinch, sing for me.
