Ja fa temps, no he oblidat
quan les ombres van marxar
i l’animal de dins
sortia a jugar.
I cara a cara,
amb la por vam aprendre la lliçó,
i amb llàgrimes ara
guardem els records.
Un dia el meu pare em va dir:
la joventut se’n va.
I agafant-me fort va continuar:
tindràs un cor bategant segons el que has viscut.
Quan tinguis problemes, jo hi seré.
I un dia deixaràs enrere el món
i viu una vida que recordis.
I m’ho explicaves quan sols era un infant:
aquestes nits no moren mai.
Les nits no moren mai.
Quan sentis la tempesta a prop
encén el llum
i fes-te el fort,
i amb les estrelles escriu el teu nom.
Vas dir-me:
pots anar molt més enllà,
pots creuar terres i mars,
jo et guiaré i sempre et podré ajudar.

Once upon a younger year
When all our shadows disappeared
The animals inside came out to play
When face to face with all our fears
Learned our lessons through the tears
Made memories we knew would never fade
One day my father he told me:
“Son, don’t let it slip away”
He took me in his arms, I heard him say:
“When you get older
Your wild life will live for younger days
Think of me if ever you’re afraid.”
He said: “One day you’ll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember.”
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
When thunder clouds start pouring down
Light a fire they can’t put out
Carve your name into those shinning stars
He said: “Go venture far beyond the shores.
Don’t forsake this life of yours.
I’ll guide you home no matter where you are.”
One day my father he told me:
“Son, don’t let it slip away.”
When I was just a kid I heard him say:
“When you get older
Your wild life will live for younger days
Think of me if ever you’re afraid.”
He said: “One day you’ll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember.”
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
My father told me
