Helena

Fa dies queabocat al balcóhe perdut el jornalxerrant amb un pardalmés avorrit que jo.

O mirant coms'esfulla un alzinarolorant romaní.Com tornen a floriri es tornen a esfullar.

Fa dies que no sé quants dies fa.Fa dies que m'estic dient... Demà...I espero...I espero...

Visquent amb res.Treballant per no resi un dia, com si res,morir-me de no res.Adéu-siau. Mercès.

Al fons d'un bar,fotent-me un perfumatper escalfar-me el cormentre arriba la morta jugar al subhastat.

Fa dies que no sé quants dies fa.Fa dies que m'estic dient... Demà...I espero...I espero...I espero...

Abocat al balcó,espero.Despullant l'horitzó,espero.Espero pel Nadali per la Magdalenapel dia i per la nitque torni Helena,,,Que torni Helena...!

I és que quan passa pel meu carrerfins el geranis li cluquen l'ull.L'aire es fa tebi amb el seu alèi les llambordes miren amuntsa pell morena.

Quan passa Helena...

Quan ella mira saps que la fontquan ella vol, la dóna.Quan ella plora, saps què és el dol.Quan ella calla, tot jo tremolo.Quan ella estima, l'amor pren vol...

I entre teulades es gronxa el soli els passerells dels fils de la llummiren gelosos com riu i es mou.Color d'espera llarga i perfumde lluna plenala meva Helena.

La meva Helena...Però...

Fa dies quel'estar dret em fa malel reuma em trenca els ditsi ha fugit el darrer pardal...

Helena

It's been days thatleaned over the balconyI've lost the day's wagechatting with a sparrowmore bored than I.

Or looking at howthe leaves fall of a Holly Oaksmelling rosemary.How they return to blossomand they return to lose its' leaves.

It's been days that I don't know how many days it's been.It's been days that I'm telling myself… tomorrowand I wait…I wait.

Living with nothing.Working for nothingand one day like if nothingI die from nothing.Farewell. Thank you.

At the back of a barI sip coffee with liquorto warm up my heartwhile death arrivesto play subastado*.

It's been days that I don't know how many days it's been.It's been days that I'm telling myself… tomorrowand I wait…and I wait…and I wait…

Leaned over the balconyI wait.Laying bare the horizonI wait.I wait for my enjoymentand for my shameby day and by nightthat Helena returnsthat Helena returns…

and it's when she passes by my streeteven the geranium blink at her.The air returns tepid with her breathand the cobblestone looks upto her dark skin.

When Helena goes by.

When she looks you know the sourcewhen she wants, you give her.When she cries, you know that it is mourning.When she's quiet, I tremble all over.When she loves, love takes flight…

And between rooves the Sun swingsand the birdies from the cables of lightlook jealously as she laughs and moves.Color of long wait and perfumeof full moonmy Helena.

My Helena…but…

It's been days thatstanding on my feet causes me painrheumatism breaks my fingersand the last sparrow has fled.
