Vuit
Ei!, que no s'hi val
Deixar escapar paraules amb la mà
Ei!, estic tocat i eliminat
I comptaré fins a gastar
Tants i tants neguits
Que no tinc dits
Ni prou memòria
Fins a vuit
Que és el mateix que l'infinit
Va!, deixem-ho estar
I dóna'm la mà, que no tinc pressa
Ei!, si et ve de gust
Baixem al parc
Que hi ha revetlla de Sant Drap
I als ulls, milers de punts
Que fan la llum de les bombetes
N'hi ha vuit
Que és el mateix que l'infinit
Totes les cançons
Les serpentines i avions
Bufen cap a les finestres i cortines
I, de bat a bat
Es despentina el meu cap
I tot pren algún sentit
Abans de comptar vuit
Ei!, baixa del niu
Sospira i riu
No tinc records de cada quart
No hi ha terra endins
Ni mar enllà
Només carrers que hem anat passant
I el so potser llunyà
Potser apagat, de les balenes
A la nit, quan aquest pis sembla infinit
Totes les cançons
Les serpentines i avions
Bufen cap a les finestres i cortines
I, de bat a bat
Es despentina el meu cap, I tot pren algún sentit
Abans comptar vuit
Eight
Hey!, you can't just
Let words slip through your hands
Hey!, I'm feeling down and out
And I'll count until I run out
So many worries
That I can't even count
Or remember enough
Until eight
Which is the same as infinity
Come on!, let's just drop it
And take my hand, I’m in no rush
Hey!, if you’re up for it
Let’s head to the park
There's a party for Saint Drap
And in the eyes, thousands of dots
That light up the bulbs
There are eight
Which is the same as infinity
All the songs
The streamers and planes
Blow towards the windows and curtains
And, all at once
My head gets messed up
And everything makes some sense
Before counting to eight
Hey!, come down from your nest
Sigh and laugh
I don’t remember every quarter
There’s no land inside
Nor sea beyond
Just streets we’ve been passing through
And the sound might be distant
Maybe muted, of the whales
At night, when this place feels infinite
All the songs
The streamers and planes
Blow towards the windows and curtains
And, all at once
My head gets messed up, and everything makes some sense
Before counting to eight
