from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

De Mataró vàrem venir
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Our translations:  ENG
De Mataró vàrem venir
per un dissabte a la tarda
i a Ribes vàrem anar,
que és camí ral de Cerdanya,
sols per veure una minyona
que és filla de molt bon pare,
sols per veure una minyona.

Té la boca de pinyó,
les dents molt fines i blanques,
té els llavis d'un viu color,
una rosa a cada galta,
té els llavis d'un viu color.
De Mataró vàrem venir,
per un dissabte a la tarda.
