Matinet me'n llevo jo
Language: Catalan (Català)
Available translation(s): ENG
Matinet me'n llevo jo,
matinet a punta d'alba
i content me'n vaig xiulant,
dret a la costa solana,
gira'm an a mi,
gira'm an a mi la cara,
gira'm an a mi.
Quan a mitja costa som,
sento una veu prima i clara,
i me'n pega un salt al cor,
que és la meva enamorada,
gira'm an a mi,
gira'm an a mi la cara,
gira'm an a mi.
Al cim de la costa som,
la veig detràs d'una mata,
-Deu vos guard la dolça amor,
matinareta heu estada,
gira'm an a mi,
gira'm an a mi la cara,
gira'm an a mi.

Early in the morning I rise
Language: English  after the Catalan (Català)
Early in the morning I rise,
early in the morning at daybreak
and happily I go whistling,
straight to the sunlit hillside,
turn round to me,
turn round to me the face,
turn it round to me.
Halfway on the hillside,
I hear a soft and clear voice,
and my heart jumps,
because it is from my beloved,
turn round to me,
turn round to me the face,
turn it round to me.
Once on the hill's summit,
I see her behind a shrub,
- God be with you my sweet love,
you have risen early,
turn round to me,
turn round to me the face,
turn it round to me.
