Com una Mà - Raimon

Com una mà

La vida estesa

Al teu davant

A tu es lliurava

Sense malícia

Tot aquell temps

T’havia fet

Com una mà

La vida estesa

Et capbussaves

De ple, turgent

Enmig dels altres

I xop de món

Et veies viu

Vint anys de temps

Que són no res

-diuen els savis-

I aquella mà

Anà tancant-se

Molt lentament

Però obstinada

Retruny ben fort

Allò que abans

En deien ànima

Creure no vol

El que el teu cos

Avui constata

Exasperada

I aïrada

No es resigna;

Espera encara

L’esclat potent

D’aquesta vida

Segura està

like a hand

The extended life

In front of you

It was delivered to you

No malice

All that time

I had made you

like a hand

The extended life

You were diving

Full, turgent

Among others

And soak in the world

You looked alive

Twenty years of time

Which are nothing

-say the wise-

And that hand

It's closing

very slowly

But obstinate

Strong rebound

What before

They called it soul

Belief does not fly

What your body

Today he finds out

exasperated

And angry

He does not resign;

wait still

The powerful explosion

Of this life

It's safe
