Original text with translation
Joan Manuel Serrat
…Y de haber nacido en la tierra baja
Pudo ser timón y volverse al mar
Pudo ser rueda y ver mundo
Ser mango, cuna o altar
Pudo ser ceniza y humo
O pudo, simplemente, no haber nacido
Donde manda el roble, pero ahí nació
Desafiando las reglas
Consentida por el sol
Más cerca de las estrellas
De abrazarse al suelo
A pelear la tierra
Con los aguaceros
De rellenar grietas
Con bojes, tomillos y enebros
De andar huyéndole al hacha
Que el amo blande ligero…,
Nudos amargos duelen en tus maderas
Encina verde
Que tus contornos te quieran
Que te respete la muerte
Que es bueno que cuando el haya enrojece
Y los caminos mudan de color
Entre esqueletos de robles
Salpiques con tu verdor
Las palideces del bosque
…And being born in the lowlands
He could be rudder and turn to the sea
It could be a wheel and see the world
Be mango, cradle or altar
It could be ash and smoke
Or he could have simply not been born
Where the oak rules, but there it was born
defying the rules
spoiled by the sun
closer to the stars
of hugging the ground
to fight the earth
with the downpours
to fill cracks
With boxwood, thyme and juniper
From running away from the ax
That the master wields light...,
Bitter knots ache in your woods
green oak
May your contours love you
May death respect you
That it is good that when he blushes
And the roads change color
Between skeletons of oaks
splash with your greenery
The paleness of the forest
