PaĦs Petit Small Country
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
El meu paĦs s tan petit My country is so small
que quan el sol se'n va a dormir that when the sun goes to sleep,
mai no est& prou segur d'haver-lo vist. he's never sure if he has seen it.
Diuen les velles s&vies Old wise women say,
que s per aix" que torna. that's why he comes back.
Potser sĦ que exageren, Yes, maybe they exaggerate,
tant se val, s aixĦ com m'agrada a mi who cares, that's the way I like
i no en sabria dir res ms. and I could say no more.
Canto i sempre en sabr I sing and I'll always know
malalt d'amor pel meu paĦs. sick of love for my country.
El meu paĦs s tan petit My country is so small
que des de dalt d'un campanar that up from a bell tower
sempre es pot veure el campanar veĦ. we can always see next one.
Diuen que els poblets tenen por, They say small towns are scared,
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/l/lluis-llach-lyrics/pais-petit-lyrics.html]
tenen por de ser massa grans, scared to be too big,
tant se val, s aixĦ com m'agrada a mi who cares, that's the way I like
i no en sabria dir res ms. and I could say no more.
Canto i sempre en sabr I sing and I'll always know
malalt d'amor pel meu paĦs. sick of love for my country.
El meu paĦs s tan petit My country is so small
que sempre cap dintre del cor that there's always room in my heart
si s que la vida et porta lluny d'aquĦ if life takes you far from here
i ens fem contrabandistes and we become smugglers
mentre no descobreixin while they can't discover
detectors pels secrets del cor detectors for secrets from the heart
I s aixĦ, s aixĦ com m'agrada a mi
And that's the way, that's the way i like it
i no en sabria dir res ms. and I could say no more.
Canto i sempre en sabr I sing and I'll always know
malalt d'amor pel meu paĦs. sick of love for my country.
