by Josep Carner i Puigoriol (1884 - 1970)

Cocorococ! (En la naixença d’un noi)
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Our translations:  ENG
Eulària, noble dama,
és reposant al llit;
hi ha vora seu la fosca,
la pau i un feble crit.

Les coses de la casa
amb un llenguatge mut
es parlen del misteri
i la dolçor que ha dut.

– Un altre – diu el sostre –,
que no em serà constant.
– Un altre – diu la llinda –,
que em deixarà cantant.

– Ell, que m’ignora encara,
– diu el roser flairós –
escamparà mes roses
sobre un cabell tot ros.

Dins ses humides nines,
medita el gos, content:
– No tindrà por de l’ombra,
farà fugî el dolent!

I en l’alta nit profunda
hom sent el gall cofoi
que diu a les estrelles:
– Cocorococ! És noi!
