Текст и перевод песни Lluís Llach - Cop de Destral




Cop de Destral
Axe Blow
El llit de fusta s′ha quedat sol,
The wooden bed is left alone,
L'home s′aixeca i espera
The man rises and waits
La llet bullida que es beu d'un glop,
For the boiled milk that he drinks in one gulp,
I amb afany esmola l'eina.
And in haste sharpens the tool.
Cop, cop, cop de destral
Blow, blow, blow of the axe,
Des del matí fins al final.
From morning till the end.
Fort, fort, cop de destral,
Hard, hard, blow of the axe,
La fusta vella tallar-la cal.
The old wood must be cut.
Amb el sarró i amb el gos ja vell
With his knapsack and his old dog
Travessa el bosc cada tarda,
He crosses the forest every afternoon,
I en el seu front d′arrugada pell
And on his wrinkled forehead
La neu s′hi posa gelada.
The snow settles frozen.
Cop, cop, cop de destral...
Blow, blow, blow of the axe...
Des del matí fins al final.
From morning till the end.
Fort, fort, cop de destral,
Hard, hard, blow of the axe,
La fusta vella tallar-la cal.
The old wood must be cut.
Van caient arbres i, quan és fosc,
Trees fall and when it's dark,
Pensa en la seva mainada,
He thinks of his children,
No vol que passin la vida al bosc
He doesn't want them to spend their lives in the forest
Com l'ha passada el seu pare.
As his father did.
Cop, cop, cop de destral...
Blow, blow, blow of the axe...
Des del matí fins al final.
From morning till the end.
Fort, fort, cop de destral,
Hard, hard, blow of the axe,
La fusta vella tallar-la cal.
The old wood must be cut.
Pensa en la dona i el temps passat,
He thinks of his wife and the time that's passed,
I la destral ja li cansa.
And the axe is already tiring him.
Al cap dels anys, també s′ha tallat
Over the years, he has also cut down
Tot el seu bosc d'esperances.
His whole forest of hopes.
Cop, cop, cop de destral...
Blow, blow, blow of the axe...
Des del matí fins al final.
From morning till the end.
Fort, fort, cop de destral,
Hard, hard, blow of the axe,
La fusta vella tallar-la cal.
The old wood must be cut.
Cop, cop, cop de destral...
Blow, blow, blow of the axe...
Des del matí fins al final.
From morning till the end.
Fort, fort, cop de destral,
Hard, hard, blow of the axe,
La fusta vella tallar-la cal.
The old wood must be cut.
