No abarateixis el somni [English translation]

Do not cheapen the dream:

I don't have anything else to tell you, if you want it so.

Do not cheapen the dream,

Which is like the star that lies waiting at the end of the road.

If it's necessary, we shall remake all the signs

Of this very difficult and harsh present time,

But never cheapen your dream ever again...

For they have put a price to our lives

And, sometimes, the price of life is to say 'enough'!

Enough of mediocre resignations

That won't allow us to face history standing tall.

And, if it's necessary, we shall live alongside misery,

But it must be without falsehood; with dignity.

Enough of ignoble threats

About starvation and the roaring of cannons.

[Instrumental]

Do not cheapen the dream:

Your star at the end of the road...

Do not cheapen the dream,

Or you will end up feeling contempt for yourself!
