Текст и перевод песни Judit Neddermann - Coses de la providència

Coses de la providència

És un matí especial d'un diumenge com cal
Es vesteix elegant per anar a passejar dins la gran ciutat
I quan va caminant veu que no té les claus
I decideix tornar, per sort és al costat, la serventa l'obrirà

Però tot sembla tan normal fins que, al trucar
Obre la porta un senyor vestit com ell, que no ha vist mai abans
I no enten res, no sap qui és

Queda ben trastocat, deu ser un malentès
Vol fer entendre al vell que aquí es
On viu ell, però el vell no enten res
Diu que si vol passar, que es quedi a dinar
I veu del tot sorprès que els
Mobles són els seus, que tot allò és seu!

Ell vol demostrar que diu només veritats
Que no s'ho inventa
Tot és tan surreal i estrany com no ha vist mai abans
I no enten res, no sap on és

L'avi desconcertat pregunta si és ell
Un d'aquells pretendents que es volen casar amb la filla gran
Ell diu que no en sap res, que ja és suficient
No és més que un malson, que ja n'hi ha prou, ja n'ha tingut prou

Però de sobte l'enlluerna la claror de la bellesa
És la dona més preciosa que ha vist mai abans
Que mai veurà, i no enten res

Pensa en el seu passat i el veu tan llunyà
Sap que s'ha enamorat, que res tornarà a ser com abans

Ara seuen tots a taula celebrant la benentesa
És la història més preciosa que han vist mai, que mai veuran
I no entenen res, però els hi fa el pes
I no entenen res, però els hi fa el pes
I no entenen res, però els hi fa el pes

Things of Providence

It's a special morning on a proper Sunday
He dresses elegantly to go for a walk in the big city
And as he walks, he realizes he doesn't have his keys
And decides to go back, fortunately it's nearby, the maid will open for him

But everything seems so normal until, upon knocking
A gentleman opens the door dressed like him, whom he has never seen before
And he doesn't understand anything, he doesn't know who he is

He is quite shocked, it must be a misunderstanding
He wants to make the old man understand that this is
Where he lives, but the old man doesn't understand anything
He says that if he wants to come in, he should stay for dinner
And he sees with great surprise that
The furniture is his, that everything is his!

He wants to prove that he is only telling the truth
That he is not making this up
Everything is so surreal and strange like he has never seen before
And he doesn't understand anything, he doesn't know where he is

The bewildered grandfather asks if he is
One of those suitors who wants to marry the eldest daughter
He says he doesn't know anything about it, that enough is enough
It's nothing more than a nightmare, that enough is enough, he has had enough

But suddenly the brightness of beauty dazzles him
She is the most precious woman he has ever seen before
That he will ever see, and he doesn't understand anything

He thinks about his past and sees it so far away
He knows he has fallen in love, that nothing will ever be the same again

Now they all sit at the table celebrating the blessing
It's the most beautiful story they have ever seen, that they will ever see
And they don't understand anything, but it doesn't matter
And they don't understand anything, but it doesn't matter
And they don't understand anything, but it doesn't matter
