Nit Freda Per Ser Abril
La maria i el marcel, de costat en una barra.
Es miren i fan glopets a les respectives canyes.
Ell vesteix tot de vermell, ahhhhh.
Ella emplena un crucigrama, ahhhhh.
Ai, maria,
Ai, marcel,
Qui s’acosta a parlar amb l’altre? qui s’arrisca a fracassar?
Qui saltarà sense xarxa?
Ell la vol treure a ballar, ahhhh.
Ella se’l vol endur a casa, ahhhhhh.
Et convidaria a vi, seria dolç, seria amable.
Si volguessis seure amb mi, quin moment més agradable!
Tancaríem el local, ahhhhh,
La nit seria tan llarga i marxaríem els dos junts d’aquesta ciutat tan rara.
I tindríem fills ben forts i una casa amb balconada.
El marcel allarga el braç, ahhhh.
La maria somriu a l’aire, ahhhh.
Però, l’estona ha anat passant, i no troben les paraules.
Ell demà serà capaç.
Ella demà estarà més guapa.
És nit freda per ser abril,
No s’està enlloc com a casa
Not Afraid to Be April
Maria and Marcel, side by side at a bar.
They look at each other and take sips from their respective straws.
He's dressed all in red, ahhhhh.
She fills out a crossword puzzle, ahhhhh.
Oh, Maria,
Oh, Marcel,
Who will approach to talk to the other? Who risks failure?
Who will jump without a safety net?
He wants to ask her to dance, ahhhh.
She wants to take him home, ahhhhhh.
I would invite you for wine, it would be sweet, it would be nice.
If you wanted to sit with me, what a pleasant moment!
We would close the bar, ahhhhh,
The night would be so long and we would leave this strange city together.
And we would have strong children and a house with a balcony.
Marcel extends his arm, ahhhh.
Maria smiles at the air, ahhhh.
But time has passed, and they can't find the words.
He will be able tomorrow.
She will be more beautiful tomorrow.
It's a cold night for being April,
Nowhere feels like home
