Текст и перевод песни Joan Manuel Serrat - Per Que la Gent S'Avorreix Tant?

Per Que la Gent S'Avorreix Tant?

Si és veritat
Que l′home pot morir, però mai la idea,
Que el sol surt per tothom i un Déu ens vetlla
I que la dona i l'or ho poden tot.
Si és veritat
Que el futur penja d′un fil prim,
Que la fe mou muntanyes i tenim
La vida pel davant.
Si és veritat
Que val la pena fer-ho bé
I que el treball dignifica,
Per què la gent s'avorreix tant?

Why Are People So Bored?

If it's true
That man can die, but never the idea,
That the sun shines for everyone and a God watches over us
And that women and gold can do anything.
If it's true
That the future hangs by a thread,
That faith moves mountains and we have
Life ahead of us.
If it's true
That it's worth doing it well
And that work adds dignity,
Why is it that people are so bored?
