Boomerang - Manel перевод на английский

Boomerang

Va arribar el tiet amb barba llarga, els avis feien dinar especial
I va dir "nens, esteu morenos", i va dir "almenys, heu crescut un pam"
I l'Ignasi i jo li escoltàvem mil aventures de països llunyans
I estaven bé, i eren distretes, però era difícil treure's del cap
El fer volar per damunt del barri aquell regal estrany

Per fi a baix, vam situar-nos a una distància prudencial
De les senyores que es bronzejaven i dels cotxes aparcats
Vam estudiar els corrents de l'aire, vam assecar-nos la suor de les mans
Però el boomerang s'encallava entre les branques i no tornava mai
Però el boomerang reclamava la perícia d'un professional

I van baixar els altres amb la Vanessa -ai la Vanessa, com li deu 'nar?
Menjaven pipes amb arrogància, se'n fotien des del banc
Fins que avorrit d'aquell espectacle va venir el Xavi, que era més gran
"Deixeu-me un tir, feu-vos enrere, deixeu-me un tir, colla de matats
Que això és canell, que això el que vol és un bon joc de braç!"

I, senyors, tan bo és insistir com saber-se retirar
I, no sé l'Ignasi, però, en el meu cas, puc reconèixer que em va fer mal
Veure en els ulls de la Vanessa que la cosa es posava interessant
Però el boomerang va encallar-se entre les branques i no va tornar mai
Però el boomerang reclamava la perícia d'un professional

Però parlo de temps, crec que era el juliol en què es va fondre l'Indurain

I vam maleir el danès i les rampes d'Hautacam
Els anys, en fi, ens han fet com homes i, malgrat que ningú ha procreat
Vaig pensant alternatives, per si mai es dóna el cas
I en aquest món entre els meus forts no hi haurà mai els detalls
Però m'esforçaré i una cosa m'abstindré de regalar

Que la infantesa serà divertida, màgica, lliure, d'acord, acceptat
Però no hi ha tant temps per perdre i, tard o d'hora, només queda una veritat
El boomerang s'encallava entre les branques i no tornava mai
El boomerang reclamava la perícia d'un professional

Boomerang

Coming soon, the uncle with the long beard, the grandparents were making a special dinner
And he said "children, you are sunburned", and he said "at least you have grown a handspan"
And Ignasi and I listened to a thousand adventures from distant lands
And they were fine, and they were entertaining, but it was hard to get out of your head
Making it fly over the neighborhood that strange gift

Finally downstairs, we positioned ourselves at a safe distance
From the ladies who were sunbathing and the parked cars
We studied the air currents, we dried the sweat from our hands
But the boomerang got stuck between the branches and never returned
But the boomerang required the expertise of a professional

And the others came down with Vanessa - oh Vanessa, how is she?
They ate seeds with arrogance, they made fun of us from the bench
Until, bored with that spectacle, came Xavi, who was older
"Let me give it a shot, step back, let me give it a shot, you bunch of idiots
That's easy, all it takes is a good arm!"

And, my lady, it's as good to insist as it is to know when to quit
And, I don't know about Ignasi, but, in my case, I can admit that it hurt me
To see in Vanessa's eyes that things were getting interesting
But the boomerang got stuck between the branches and never returned
But the boomerang required the expertise of a professional

But I'm talking about time, I think it was July when Indurain melted down

And we cursed the Dane and the ramps of Hautacam
The years, in short, have made us like men and, although none of us have procreated
I'm thinking of alternatives, just in case it ever happens
And in this world, among my strengths, there will never be details
But I will try and there is one thing I will refrain from giving away

That childhood will be fun, magical, free, okay, I agree
But there is not much time to lose and, sooner or later, there is only one truth left
The boomerang got stuck between the branches and never returned
The boomerang required the expertise of a professional
