Translation of the song Planetes marins artist Pastora

Catalan

Planetes marins

English translation

Sea planets

Aigua avall baixava una rosa

A rose went down the water

cel amunt volava un ocell

a bird flied up high in the sky

i la flor besava una onada

and the flower kissed a wave

que d'una abraçada la deixà sense arrels.

that left it rootless with a hug.

Entre núvols l'ocell la mirava

The bird looked through the clouds

queien els pètals, nua la flor

petals fell, the flower naked

tot piulant volia salvar-la

tweeting, it wanted to save it

però les espines punxaven el vol.

but the thorns pricked the flight

Els amors que no oblidaré

The loves I will not forget

són aquells que no vaig tenir

are those I didn't have

si pogués, només, somiar

If I could only dream

que una ona em pogués estimar.

that a wave could love me.

Era el mar més gran que recordo

It was the biggest sea I remember

un planea de peixos i sal

a planet of fish and salt

i la flor per més que estudiava

and no matter how much the flower studied

la seva bellesa no aprenia a nedar.

her beauty couldn't learn how to swim.

Els amors que no oblidaré

The loves I will not forget

són aquells que no vaig tenir

are those I didn't have

si pogués, només, somiar

If I could only dream

que una ona em pogués segrestar.

that a wave could kidnap me.
