by Joan Maragall i Gorina (1860 - 1911)

Romança sense paraules
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Our translations:  ENG
En la pica de la font
neda una rosa vermella;
acotada al raig del broc
hi beu una joveneta,
per la barba i coll avall
li regala l’aigua fresca;
els germanets més petits,
riu que riu de la mullena;
ella riu i beu ensems
i al cap d’avall s’ennuega.
Tots es posen a xisclar,
s’esvaloten i s’alegren,
i el més petitet de tots,
en bressol dins la caseta,
al sentir aquell brogit,
tot nuet riu i perneja
i es posa a cantar tot sol
una romança sens lletra.
