Porc

Em cal un règim per a amagrir.
La pell em tiba, panteixo massa.
No em moc de casa, menjo a desdir:
és clar, m'engreixo com un garrí,
--allò que passa.

Però, ara sí:
poques segones, gens de carbassa
i les cent passes cada matí.

Ja tothom parla de Sant Martí!

Pig

I need a diet to make me thinner.
My skin is tight, I gasp and pant.
I don’t go out, eat too much dinner:
I’m just like a piglet, putting on fat,
– that’s what happens.

But now, oh yes:
no more second helpings, or pumpkins
and every morning a hundred paces.

Now everyone’s talking of Martinmas!

* 29.11.1899, Sabadell, Испания
† 18.06.1986, Barcelona, Испания

Joan Oliver (Sabadell, 1899-Barcelona, 1986), better known as Pere Quart, the name with which he signed his poems, was a poet, playwright, narrator, translator and journalist.

Oliver is regarded as one of the five most important Catalan poets of the 20th century and wrote poetry that has been seen as the most original of all. His first anthology, Les decapitacions (1934, The Beheadings), anticipates his later work: agile, focusing on incidents and drawn by realism, a reflection of the traumatic experience of the Spanish Civil War and exile, and with a despairing and sceptical vision of the world. He was born into a bourgeois family of industrialists and, together with Francesc Trabal and Armand Obiols, he founded the Sabadell Group. He remained a writer with a style marked by irony that attacked conventions. El misantrop, his translation of Molière’s play The Misanthrope, was awarded the President of the French Republic Prize in the 1950s. He was awarded the Honorary Prize for Catalan Letters in the 1970s and in the 80s received the City of Barcelona Prize, the Josep Maria de Sagarra Prize for Translation and the Government of Catalonia Prize for Poetry. However, in keeping with his nonconformism and his critical stance, he turned down the Sant Jordi Cross.
