Poble Sec's little avenue

Seated at the Sortidor Square,
here I wait for you, as if it was the first bar
La Boheme, where Blai street begins,
which is Poble Sec's little avenue.
 
Tell me me about the rain that has rained,
about wet images on the mirrors laying on the pavement.
Maybe it's because of this that the theatre is so empty,
Maybe it's because of this that today I feel my hands so empty.
 
We will put our feet on the sand again,
on Barcelona's beach some July night,
And we'll write down that they will never take our life ever again,
that we give voice to the sails when sing rumbas at the port.
 
Tell me about the life yet to come,
about all the men that love each other.
I ask you whether humanity exists,
if we shall declare in war with some army of ignorants.
 
Look, i've already seen you cry,
and believe me when I say it also happens to me,
when you sing to me the songs while you work,
pointing my doubts as hammers inside my head.
 
We will put our feet on the sand again,
on Barcelona's beach some July night,
And we'll write down that they will never take our life ever again,
that we give voice to the sails when sing rumbas at the port.
 
While in the kitchen accumulate,
the dishes and glasses of last night's dinner,
I'm afraid of ordering this life,
or to do it when it's too late.
 
I think, I'm so lucky to have songs
to explain you that I am deep down sometimes,
and pull the necessary energy
to fight and survive in this damned world.
 
We will put our feet on the sand again,
on Barcelona's beach some July night,
And we'll write down that they will never take our life ever again,
that we give voice to the sails when sing rumbas at the port.
 
Seated at the Sortidor Square,
here I wait for you, as if it was the first bar
La Boheme, where Blai street begins,
which is Poble Sec's little avenue.
