Original text and translations

Catalan text Va vogant al compas, ben seguit bufa el vent! A nem cap a la barca que jeu com brau dormit al bell mig de la platja a nem hi tot seguit. Posem la dintre l'aigüa saltem hi tots a dins doncs flota a les onades com ploma de pèlfi. Cantem vogant, cantem cara al vent! Avant barca divina arca dels béns marins amb vol fi de gavina a dintre't mar en dins. Baten sos rems les aigües amb xipoteig festiu i un serrell blanc d'escuma li va fent el xiu xiu. La xarxa està ben plena: la pesca ha acabat la mar ja s'aserena i el sol s'ens ha amagat. La lluna platejada s'enfila a l'horitzó, la fosca ja s'atança tornem la barca a port. Cantem companys al vent la cançó de les onades. Cantem de cara al vent que ens refresca el pensament. Va vogant bufa el vent Anem cap a la platja que ve la nit Apa nois que ve la nit!

English translation Let’s go to the fishing boat that lies as a slept bull at the middle of the beach, let’s go at once there!… Let’s carry it out at sea All we let’s jump into it: since it floats on the waves as feather of fine hair… (Refrain:) My friendo let’s sing to the wind the song of the waves; let’s sing face to the wind, that cheers up the our mind!… Come in,you,lovely boat ark of divine goods, with gull’s a fine flight get just out at the sea!… The oars strike the waters with also a witty splash, and surf’s a white fringe is a good ehisper for it… (to the refrain) The net is full of fishes, the fishing is already ended; the sea is also quiet The sunset is just arrived. The silver-platet moon rises on the horizon; the darkness just is coming; let’s bring back the boat to harbour!… (to the refrain) ENDING: The wind blows,It’s blowing… Let’s go to the beach because the night is coming… Cheer up, boys! the night is coming!
