L'espectre de Maria Antonieta

The Specter of Marie Antoinette

L'espectre de Maria Antonieta

Of course, there are days when everyone seems foolish and chooses to stay silentClar que arriben dies on tothom li sembla imbècil I opta per callar
Of course, if she concentrates, she can smell exotic perfumes running down her armClar que si es concentra pot sentir perfums exòtics recorrent-li el braç
Of course, she becomes tedious with her tales of carriages crossing meadowsClar que es fa pesada amb els seus contes de carrosses que travessen prats
Do not dare judge her from your momentarily alive and healthy bodies!No goseu jutjar-la des dels vostres cossos momentàniament tan vius I sans!

At duskQue al tombant de vespre
When the sun goes downQuan el sol se'n va
Marie AntoinetteMaria Antonieta
Goes out to investigateSurt a investigar
And crosses the trafficI travessa el trànsit
And sneaks in wherever she wantsI es cola allà on vol
To scare little girlsPer fer por a nenes
And sleepless menI a homes sense son
And with other spectersI amb altres espectres
She laughs at mortalsEs riu dels mortals
Sitting on the spiresAsseguda en punxes
Of the cathedralDe la catedral

And flying over a deserted Paris, she saysI sobrevolant París desert es diu
Marie, you're here, as clever as you think, and you don't see how memories are lying to youMaria, ets aquí, tan llesta com et penses I no veus com els records t'estan mentint
They're lying to you!T'estan mentint!
And she saysI es diu
Marie, only you know how you managed to bore life inside those gardens, those gardens!Maria, només tu saps com vas arribar a avorrir la vida a l'interior d'aquells jardins, d'aquells jardins!
