L'avi Siset em parlava  de bon matí al portal,  mentre el sol esperàvem  i els carros vèiem passar.  Siset, que no veus l'estaca  a on estem tots lligats?  Si no podem desfer-nos-en  mai no podrem caminar!  COROSi estirem tots ella caurà  i molt de temps no pot durar,  segur que tomba, tomba, tomba,  ben corcada deu ser ja. 

Si jo l'estiro fort per aquí  i tu l'estires fort per allà,  segur que tomba, tomba, tomba  i ens podrem alliberar.  

THE STAKE Grandpa Siset spoke to meEarly in the morning, at the front door,While we were waiting for the sun,And while we watched the wagons pass.Siset, can't you see the stakeWhere we all are tied?If we don’t untie ourselves from itWe’ll never be able to walk free!CHORUSIf we all haul, it will fallIt can't last much longer,For sure it will fall, fall, fall;It must be rotten by now.If I pull hard this way,And you pull hard that way,For sure it will fall, fall, fall,And we can free ourselves.

Però Siset, fa molt temps ja  les mans se'm van escorxant  i quan la força se me'n va  ella es més forta i més gran.  Ben cert sé que està podrida  i és que, Siset, pesa tant  que a cops la força m'oblida,  torna'm a dir el teu cant.CORO  L'avi Siset ja no diu res,  mal vent que se'l va emportar,  ell qui sap cap a quin indret  i jo a sota el portal.  I, mentre passen els nous vailets,  estiro el coll per cantar  el darrer cant d'en Siset,  el darrer que em va ensenyar.  CORO

But, Siset, it's been such a long time, now!My hands are skinned bare.And when my strength leaves meIt gets stronger and bigger.Yes, I know it's rotten,But you know, Siset, it weighs so much,That sometimes my strength abandons me.So sing me your song again:CHORUSGrandpa Siset speaks no moreAn evil wind took him awayTo who knows where. And I, here in the doorway,While the new boys pass by,Open my throat to singSiset's last song,The last thing he taught me. CHORUS
