No esperem el blat don't wait the wheat sense haver sembrat, having not seed, no esperem que l'arbre don't wait for the tree doni fruit sense podar-lo; give fruit without pruning it; l'hem de treballar we have to work it out l'hem d'anar a regar, we have to go and sprinkle it, encara que l'ossada ens faci mal even when our bones hurt

L'avi Siset em parlava( ) Grandpa Siset spoke with me de bon mat?al portal early in the morning, in the frontdoor mentre el sol esper...vem while we were wainting for the sun i els carros veiem passar. and we saw passing the cars( ) Siset que no veus l'estaca Siset, don't you see the stake a on estem tots lligats? where we all are tied? Si no podem desfer-la If we cannot undo it mai no podrem caminar! we won't be able to walk!
Si estirem tots ella caur... If we all pull it, it will fall i molt de temps no pot durar, and it can't last much time, segur que tomba, tomba, tomba, surely it falls, falls, falls, ben corcada deu ser ja. it must be worm-eatn by now. Si jo l'estiro fort per aqu? If i pull hard towards here, i tu l'estires fort per all..., and you pull it towards there, segur que tomba, tomba, tomba, i'm sure it falls, falls, falls, i ens podrem alliberar! and we'll be able to be free!
Per?ja fa molt temps ja! But it's been a long time, now! Les mans se'm van escorxant! My hands are peeling! I quan la for?a se me'n va And when my force goes ella ?s m?s ampla i m?s gran. it's wider and bigger. Ben cert s?que est... podrida, Yes I know it's rotten, per??s que, Siset, pesa tant, but you know, Siset, it's so heavy, que a cops la for?a m'oblida. sometimes force forgets me. Torna'm a dir el treu cant: Say me again your singing:
Si estirem tots ella caur... If we all pull it, it will fall i molt de temps no pot durar, and it can't last much time, segur que tomba, tomba, tomba, surely it falls, falls, falls, ben corcada deu ser ja. it must be worm-eatn by now. Si jo l'estiro fort per aqu? If i pull hard towards here, i tu l'estires fort per all..., and you pull it towards there, segur que tomba, tomba, tomba, i'm sure it falls, falls, falls, i ens podrem alliberar! and we'll be able to be free!
L'avi Siset ja no diu res Grandpa Siset doesn't speak anymore mal vent que se'l va emportar bad wind who took him away ell qui sap cap a quin indret he, who knows where, i jo aqu?sota el portal and me, here under the door i quan passen els nous vailets and when new boys pass by estiro el coll per cantar i strech my neck to sing el darrer cant d'en Siset Siset's last singing lo darrer que em va ensenyar( ) the last thing he taught me
Si estirem tots ella caur... If we all pull it, it will fall i molt de temps no pot durar, and it can't last much time, segur que tomba, tomba, tomba, surely it falls, falls, falls, ben corcada deu ser ja. it must be worm-eatn by now. Si jo l'estiro fort per aqu? If i pull hard towards here, i tu l'estires fort per all..., and you pull it towards there, segur que tomba, tomba, tomba, i'm sure it falls, falls, falls, i ens podrem alliberar! and we'll be able to be free!
