Desert D'amics - Raimon

Desert d’amics, de béns e de senyor

En estrany lloc i en estranya contrada

Lluny de tot bé, fart d’enuig e tristor

Ma voluntat e pensa caitivada

Me trob del tot en mal poder sotsmès

No vei algú que de mé s’haja cura

E soi guardats, enclòs, ferrats e pres

De què en fau grat a ma trista ventura

Eu hai vist temps que no em plasia res;

Ara em content de ço qui em fai tristura

E los grillons lleugers ara preu més

Que en lo passat la bella brodadura

Fortuna vei que ha mostrat son voler

Sus mé, volent que en tal punt vengut sia;

Però no em cur, pus hai fait mon dever

Amb tots los bons que em trob en companyia

Tots aquests mals no em són res de sofrir

En esguard d’u qui al cor me destenta

E em fai tot jorn d’esperança partir:

Com no vei res que ens avanç d’una espenta

En acunçar nostre deslliurament

Deserts d’amics, de béns e de senyor

En estrany lloc i en estranya contrada…

Desert of friends, goods and lord

In a strange place and in a strange region

Far from all good, full of anger and sadness

My will and thought captivated

I find myself completely in subdued power

I don't see anyone who has taken care of me

And you are saved, including, ironed and taken

Why are you grateful to my sad fate?

I haven't seen anything for a while;

Now I am content with what makes me sad

And light shackles now cost more

That the beautiful embroidery happened

Fortuna sees that she has shown her will

Sus mé, wanting it to be sold at such a point;

But I don't care, pus hai fait mon duty

With all the good people I find in company

All these evils are nothing for me to suffer

In the watchful eye of you who in my heart makes me happy

And every day it makes me hope to leave:

As he does not see anything that is ahead of us by a leap

At our deliverance

Deserts of friends, goods and lord

In a strange place and in a strange region...
