The Legacy of the Shepherd

El Legat Del Pastor

I've always been a shepherdUn servidor ha estat sempre pastor
I have a hundred goats and a bagCent cabres tinc i un sarró
Oh lay kai oh lay kai rai caraiOi lai kai o lai kai rai carai
One day while tending the flockI un dia estant pasturant el ramat
In the vast meadows of PallarsPels grans prats del pallars
The afternoon was gray and the sky gray and dampLa tarda era grisa i el cel gris com humit
It announced a storm, it announced bad weatherAnunciava turmenta anunciava mal temps
Oh lay kai oh lay kai rai caraiOi lai kai o lai kai rai carai
And suddenly a loud thunder and a big flashI de cop un gran tro i un gran llamp
And the goats ran down the mountainI les cabres muntanya avall
Frightened, scared shitlessEspantades cagades de por
But what are you doing, where are you going, but stopPerò què feu on aneu però pareu
Don't run, you'll get lostNo correu que us perdreu
Wait for me, I'm comingEspereu-me que vinc
Oh lay kai oh lay kai rai caraiOi lai kai o lai kai rai carai
And oh shit, I trip and damn, I fallI ai carai que tropeço i merda que caic
I fall, fall, fall right at the edge of a ravineCaic caic caic just a ran d'un barranc
I've never found the branch to hold on toMai he trobat la branca on amarrar-me
And I slip, I tumble down the cliffI rellisco em despenyo precipici avall
Oh lay kai oh lay kai rai caraiOi lai kai o lai kai rai carai
And I fall and roll and I crush myself right under it allI jo caic i rodolo i m'esclafo ben bé sota de tot
On a huge rock at the bottom of the ravineSobre una pedra inmensa al fondo del barranc
Oh lay kai oh lay kai rai caraiOi lai kai o lai kai rai carai
And I'm down, crushed, dyingI jo a baix aplastat moribund
In a moment like this, you can count what can be saidEn un moment així pots contar què es pot dir
All of you come here, come to meBaixeu totes aquí veniu totes a mi
Before I dieQue és que abans de morir
Listen to what I want to sayEscolteu que us vull dir
My daughters, one day this land will be yoursFilles meves algun dia aquestes terres seran vostres
All the grass, all the meadowsTota l'herba tots els prats
All the fruits, all the cropsTos els fruits tots els sembrats
I've always lived in scarcityQue he viscut sempre en carència
But I can leave you some inheritancePerò us puc deixar alguna herència
All the trees, all the wheatTots els arbres tot el blat
All the rivers, all the townsTots els rius tots els poblats
My daughters, what do I leave youFilles meves que és que us deixo
That I'm dying right nowQue em moro avui mateix
But don't cry for me, little goatsPerò no ploreu per mi cabretes
And keep moving onI segui el vostre pas
Because today I'm throwing a partyQue és que avui un dono festa
It's my last afternoon and I'm throwing a party for everyoneÉs la meva última tarda i dono festa a tothom
And you are freeI sou lliures

And from now on, you are freeI a partir d'ara sou lliures
You can do whatever you want, familyPodeu fer el que volgueu família
I'm the dad, I'm the momSóc el papa sóc la mama
I'm the dad of the goatsSóc el papa de les cabres
But jump, jump, little goatsPerò brinqueu brinqueu cabretes
Run away to the mountainsAneu fugiu a les muntanyes
And hide for a while in the woodsI oculteu-vos un temps al bosc
Rest, eat grassReposeu-vos mengeu herba
But take this bag that I give youPerò agafeu aquest sarró que us entrego
And keep itI conserveu-lo
This old leather bagAquest sarró de cuiro vell
That I've always carried on my backQue he portat sempre a l'esquena
I only give you this backpackSols us dono aquest macuto
Maybe one day you'll need itPotser algun dia us farà falta
If you find the shepherdessSi trobeu la pastoreta
With beautiful eyes in the mountainsD'ulls bellíssims a la serra

The shepherdess of the little goatsLa pastora de cabretes
Preferred by the bucks and rams and lambsPreferida pels cabrons i bens i xais
And kids and ewesI bots i ovelles
The shepherdess of the mountainsLa pastora de la serra
Who makes coats from human skinQue fa abrics de pell humana
When the goats are cold, familyQuan les cabres tenen fred família
She's the mom and she's the dadÉs la mama i és el papa
She's the mom of the goatsÉs la mama de les cabres
Baa baa baa, look where you see herBe be be ves per on si la veieu
Send her my regardsDoneu-li records
That I'm dead, and if you want, you can go with herQue m'he mort que si voleu podeu anar amb ella
Tending, jumping in the meadowsPasturant brincant pels prats
Tending, jumping in the grassPasturant brincant per l'herba
There are two things in life that I leave because I'm dyingHi ha dos coses a la vida que és que deixo perquè em moro
There are two things in life that I leave, that's why I cryHi ha dos coses a la vida que és que deixo per això ploro
The shepherdess of the mountainsLa pastora de la serra
And a flock of loose goats.I un ramat de cabre sueltas.
