Translation of the song Les dolces festes artist Christmas Carols
Les dolces festes
The Lovely Celebrations
- «Digues xic, com és que riuen
- 'Tell me son, why is it that are laughing,
Tant contents, tots els minyons?»
So very happily, all the children?'
- «Pare, perquè avui els donen
- 'Father, it's because today they're getting
Neules, vi blanc i torrons».
Neula pastries, white wine and turron'.
Ai, dolces festes
Ah, lovely celebrations
Com són aquestes
Such as these ones
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
La gent se'n riuen
People laugh
Quan els nois diuen:
When they boys say:
«Neules! Neules!
'Neula pastries! Neula patries!
Torrons i vi blanc!»
Turron and white wine!'
Des el Cel el cor hi envia
Heaven sends the choir
La capella angelical,
Of the Chapel of Angels,
Per cantar-ne les fineses
So they can sing the praises
Del qui neix dins un portal.
Of He who was born in a portal.
Ai, dolces festes
Ah, lovely celebrations
Com són aquestes
Such as these ones
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
La gent se'n riuen
People laugh
Quan els nois diuen:
When they boys say:
«Neules! Neules!
'Neula pastries! Neula patries!
Torrons i vi blanc!»
Turron and white wine!'
Pastorets d'aquestes serres,
Little sepherds from these highlands,
Qui dormiu amb gran repòs;
You who sleep and rest so much;
Veniu ara, ben de pressa
Come now, do hasten
Que n'és nat el Redemptor!
For our Redeemer is born!
Ai, dolces festes
Ah, lovely celebrations
Com són aquestes
Such as these ones
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
La gent se'n riuen
People laugh
Quan els nois diuen:
When they boys say:
«Neules! Neules!
'Neula pastries! Neula patries!
Torrons i vi blanc!»
Turron and white wine!'
Aixequeu-vos grans i quitxalla;
Rise both old and children;
Fora son, deixeu les pells!
Stay awake, abandon your fur blankets!
Veniu tots, contents i alegres,
Do come all, both happy and cheerful,
Que n'és nat el Rei del Cel.
For the King of Heaven is born.
Ai, dolces festes
Ah, lovely celebrations
Com són aquestes
Such as these ones
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
Les de Nadal!
For Christmas time!
La gent se'n riuen
People laugh
Quan els nois diuen:
When they boys say:
«Neules! Neules!
'Neula pastries! Neula patries!
Torrons i vi blanc!»
Turron and white wine!'
