L'Hereu Riera

Abatut per tots els vents
de la discòrdia,
desconcertat,
amb un fort mal de queixal
del seny,
aquell home sol,
petit, insignifIcan’t,
ja no prega com solia.
Emprenyat, tocat de l’ala,
l’eco de les muntanyes
rebot el seu blasfemar:
—Els déus grecs,
si més no,
eren més elegants!!

"There must be some kind of way out of here",
Said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion,
I can't get no relief.
Businessman they drink my wine,
Plowman dig my earth
None will level on the line, nobody offered his word, hey"

"No reason to get excited,"
The thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late"

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too

Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl
business man there, drink my wine,
Come and take my herb
