Lyrics
Per construir un bell somni
El primer que cal és estar despert
Mà ferma per dur les brides
I fer-se un projecte a mida
Comptant que tot s’encongeix
Materials de primera
Amples i profunds els seus fonaments
A prova de malentesos
Compromisos, interessos
I accidents
Orientat al sud i protegit dels vents
Res no cura les ferides com un bell somni
Qui és que no arrisca la vida per un bell somni?
Què seria de nosaltres sense un bell somni?
Què en faríem, del dia i de la nit?
Per construir un bell somni
Cal posar-s'hi a plena dedicació
I estar pendent, a tota hora
De si riu, si dorm, si plora
Com si es tractés d’un nadó
I pel bé de l’empresa
És indispensable estar assabentat
Que a la fi de la proesa
Serà una sorpresa
El seu resultat
Hi ha un bon tros entre els somnis i la realitat
Res no cura les ferides com un bell somni
Qui és que no arrisca la vida per un bell somni?
Què seria de nosaltres sense un bell somni?
Què en faríem, del dia i de la nit?
Per construir un bell somni
Cal a més a més ser prou eixerit
-quan es gira la fortuna-
Per sortir d’entre les runes
I fer-ne un altre, tot seguit
Lyrics translation
To build a beautiful dream
The first thing that you need is to be awake
A strong hand to carry the flanges
And make it a project to size
Counting that everything shrinks
Materials of the first
Broad and deep its foundations
Evidence of misunderstandings
Commitments, interests
And accidents
South-facing and protected from the winds
Nothing heals wounds like a beautiful dream
Who is it that does not risk life for a beautiful dream?
What would be of us without a beautiful dream?
What would we do, the day and the night?
To build a beautiful dream
You need to put there full-time
And be aware, at all times
If the river, if he sleeps, if he cries
As if it were a baby
And for the good of the company
It is essential to be aware
That at the end of the feat
It will be a surprise
The result
There is a nice piece between dreams and reality
Nothing heals wounds like a beautiful dream
Who is it that does not risk life for a beautiful dream?
What would be of us without a beautiful dream?
What would we do, the day and the night?
To build a beautiful dream
You must in addition be sufficiently joyfully
-when you turn the fortune-
To exit from between the rubble
And do another one, then
