Déception
Language: French (Français)
Our translations: CAT ENG
Le soleil rayonnait encore.
J'ai voulu revoir les grands bois,
Où nous promenions autrefois
Notre amour à sa belle aurore.
Je mi disais: "Sur le chemin,
Je la retrouverai, sans doute:
Ma main se tendra vers sa main,
Et nous nous remettrons en route."
Je regarde partout.
En vain! J'appelle!
Et Vécho seul m'écoute!
O le pauvre soleil pâli!
O les pauvres bois sans ramage!
O, mon pauvre amour, quel dommage!
Si vite perdu dans l'oubli!

Decepció
Language: Catalan (Català) after the French (Français)
El sol lluïa encara.
He volgut tornar a veure els grans boscos,
on abans passejàvem
el nostre amor a la bella aurora.
Jo em deia: “En el camí,
la retrobaré, sens dubte:
la meva mà agafarà la seva
i continuarem el camí.”
Miro per tot arreu.
En va! La crido!
I només l’eco m’escolta!
Oh pobre sol empal·lidit!
Oh pobres boscos sense ramatge!
Oh, el meu pobre amor, quina llàstima!
Perdut tan de pressa en l’oblit!
