Original text and translations
Catalan text
- El desembre, congelat, confús es retira.
- Abril, de flors coronat, tot el món admira.
- Quan en un jardí d'amor neix una divina flor
- D'una rosa bella fecunda i poncella.
- El primer pare causà la nit tenebrosa
- Que a tot el món ofuscà la vista penosa;
- Mes, en una mitja nit, brilla el sol que n'és eixit
- D'una bella aurora que el cel enamora.
- El mes de maig ha florit, sens ésser encara,
- Un lliri blanc i polit de fragància rara,
- Que per tot el món se sent, de Llevant fins a Ponent,
- Tota sa dolçura i olor amb Ventura.
English translation
by Andy Behrens, 2001
- Frozen, dim December retreats.
- The whole world marvels at April, crowned by flowers,
- When in a garden of love a divine flower is born
- From a beautiful rose, fruitful and virginal.
- Our first father [Adam] brought on the night
- Which darkens everyone's sight.
- But at midnight, the risen sun shines --
- Announcing a beautiful dawn, delighting the sky.
- The month of May has blossomed, not yet in full flower.
- A white and shining lily, of such rare fragrance
- That from Orient to Occident all can breathe in
- All its sweetness and scent with blessedness.
