CANÇÓ SENSE NOM (ON VAS)SONG WITHOUT A NAME (WHERE ARE YOU GOING)
  
On vas amb les banderes i avionsWhere are you going with flags and airplanes
i tot el cercle de canonsand all the circle of cannons
que apuntes al meu pobleyou are aiming at my people
  
On vas amb la vergonya per galóWhere are you going with shame as your stripes
i en el fusell hi dus la porand holding fear inside the guns
que apuntes al meu poble.you are aiming at my people
  
On vas quan ja l'infant no vol jugarWhere are you going when the child doesn't want to play anymore
per que el que rep es sed de sangbecause what he gets is only bloodthirst
i ets tú qui l'omplesand it's you who fill him with it
  
On vas quan ja l'infant no pot mirarWhere are you going when the child doesn't want to look
ni el blau del mar ni aquest cel blau,anymore at the blue sea, at the blue sky
i ets tú qui el robes.and it's you who deprive him from it
  
On vas amb les banderesWhere are you going with flags
on vas amb els avionswhere are you going with airplanes
on vas, on vas.where are you going, where.
On vas amb els fusellsWhere are you going with guns
On vas amb els canonswhere are you going with cannons
On vas, on vas.where are you going, where.
  
On vas quan ja l'infant no pot mirarWhere are you going when the child doesn't want to look
ni el blau del mar ni aquest cel blau,anymore at the blue sea, at the blue sky
i ets tú qui el robes.and it's you who deprive him from it
  
On vas amb les banderes i avionsWhere are you going with flags and airplanes
i tot el crecle de canonsand all the circle of cannons
que apuntes al meu pobleyou are aiming at my people
  
On vas amb la vergonya per galóWhere are you going with shame as your stripes
i en el fusell hi dus la porand holding fear inside the guns
que apuntes al meu poble.you are aiming at my people
  
On vas quan ja l'infant no vol jugarWhere are you going when the child doesn't want to play anymore
per que el que rep es sed de sangbecause what he gets is only bloodthirst
i ets tú qui l'omples.and it's you who fill him with it.
