Paroles et traduction Sabor de Gracia - L'Estaca

L'Estaca

L'avi Siset em parlava
De bon matí al portal
Mentre el sol esperàvem
I els carros vèiem passar

Siset, que no veus l'estaca
On estem tots lligats?
Si no podem desfer-nos-en
Mai no podrem caminar!

Si estirem tots, ella caurà
I molt de temps no pot durar
Segur que tomba, tomba, tomba
Ben corcada deu ser ja

Si jo l'estiro fort per aquí
I tu l'estires fort per allà
Segur que tomba, tomba, tomba
I ens podrem alliberar

Però, Siset, fa molt temps ja
Les mans se'm van escorxant
I quan la força se me'n va
Ella és més ampla i més gran

Ben cert sé que està podrida
Però és que, Siset, pesa tant
Que a cops la força m'oblida
Torna'm a dir el teu cant

Si estirem tots, ella caurà
I molt de temps no pot durar
Segur que tomba, tomba, tomba
Ben corcada deu ser ja

Si jo l'estiro fort per aquí
I tu l'estires fort per allà
Pero segur que tomba, tomba, tomba
I ens podrem alliberar

Si estirem tots, ella caurà
I molt de temps no pot durar
Segur que tomba, tomba, tomba
Ben corcada deu ser ja

Si jo l'estiro fort per aquí
I tu l'estires fort per allà
Segur que tomba, tomba, tomba
I ens podrem alliberar

The Stake

Avi Siset was telling me
Early in the morning at the gate
While we waited for the sun
And we watched the carts pass by

Siset, don't you see the stake
We're all tied to?
If we can't get rid of it
We'll never be able to walk!

If we all pull, it will fall
And it cannot last much longer
It will surely fall, fall, fall
It must be rotten by now

If I pull it hard from here
And you pull it hard from there
It will surely fall, fall, fall
And we can set ourselves free

But, Siset, it's been a long time now
My hands are getting chapped
And when my strength fails me
It is wider and larger

I know for sure that it is rotten
But it's just that, Siset, it weighs so much
That sometimes my strength fails me
Sing me your song again

If we all pull, it will fall
And it cannot last much longer
It will surely fall, fall, fall
It must be rotten by now

If I pull it hard from here
And you pull it hard from there
It will surely fall, fall, fall
And we can set ourselves free

If we all pull, it will fall
And it cannot last much longer
It will surely fall, fall, fall
It must be rotten by now

If I pull it hard from here
And you pull it hard from there
It will surely fall, fall, fall
And we can set ourselves free
