El bandoler The brigand
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
En el segle dinou, in nineteen century
amb el nom de Joan Serra with the name of Joan Serra
es coneix un bandoler is known a brigand,
per tothom en La Pera. for everybody `La Pera`.

Li agradava la sang He liked the blood
i el xiprer encara recorda and the cypress still remembers
els precs que all... han demanat prayers who have asked there
pietat, pietat. for piety, piety

`No em mateu, `Don`t kill me
que tinc dos fills i una esposa, I have two children and a wife,
us dar‚ tot mon diner I`ll give you all my money
per• no em claveu eixa daga. but don`t stick me that dagger

No em mateu, Don`t kill me,
us demano per ma mare` I beg it for my mother
`Reseu l`?ltim `crec en Deu`` `Say your last credo`
`Pietat, pietat` `Piety, piety`

L`endem... Next day,
davant la Verge del Carme in front of the Verge del Carme
de genolls est... pregant on his knees he`s praying
i a dos ciris enc‚n la flama. and to two wax candles burns the flame.

Per• altre cop But again
per camins i per muntanyes thru roads and thru mountains
se senten els forts crits loud screams are heard
de la gent que en La Pera mata. the ones who La Pera kills

`No em mateu, `Don`t kill me
que tinc dos fills i una esposa, I have two children and a wife,
us dar‚ tot mon diner I`ll give you all my money
per• no em claveu eixa daga. but don`t stick me that dagger

No em mateu, Don`t kill me,
us demano per ma mare` I beg it for my mother
`Reseu l`?ltim `crec en Deu`` `Say your last credo`
`Pietat, pietat` `Piety, piety`

Per•, Joan Serra, But, Joan Serra,
avui t`ha mancat la sort today you missed your luck
dos soldats t`han pres ben fort two soldiers have taken you hard
i ara restes entre barrots and now you rest in bars.

L`endem... de bon mat? Next day, early in the morning
veu la forca preparada he sees the gallows ready
en La Pera llan‡a un crit La Pera makes a shout
‚s la seva ?ltima preg...ria: it`s his last prayer:

`Quan jo sigui ben mort `When I`ll be pretty dead
i penjat de l`alta forca and hanging at the high gallows
i defalleixi mon cor and my heart decay
i m`aneu a posar a la fossa, and you go to put me down the moat,
que alg? resi una preg...ria may somebody say a prayer
davant la Verge del Carme in front of the Verge del Carme
i que dos ciris tinguin flama` and may two wax candles flame`

Ning? no ho va fer. No one did it.
