No trobaràs la mar [English translation]

If one of these days you visit me home,

I will show you my garden,

A cloud that I keep in my courtyard

And the jasmine blossoms.

You shall not find the sea,

The sea left a long time ago:

It got up and left one day

And left me standing here.

For you, I will leave my job

And the tools scattered on the table;

I will lock the window really well

So the wind cannot drag any of my words away.

You shall not find the sea,

The sea left a long time ago:

It got up and left one day

And left me standing here.

You will find fresh flowers

And fruit on the table,

And a song I've written for you

That I've zealously kept for a long time...

You shall not find the sea,

The sea left a long time ago:

It got up and left one day

And left me standing here.

And later on, once you've gone away,

It will be Winter every night;

I will lie down on the same bed

With coldness biting my lips.

You shall not find the sea,

The sea left a long time ago:

It got up and left one day

And left me standing here...
