Original Lyrics in Catalan:

Barcelona, és a la tarda
fa molt sol allà a la rambla
i l'olor de flors perfuma un record d'estiu

A l'Agost, està ben plena
i hi ha gent de tota mena
fins que el temps s'atura i de cop ningú riu

No saps com, la llum s'apaga
tenim por i la por ens cala
no ens pensem que passi a casa
però som prous per aturar-la

tots units, ben junts
encarem el dia que es desperta
tan se val d'on som i d'on venim,
no ens faran mal
la força d'un sol poble és aquí

tots units, avui
cridem sí a l'amor i no a la guerra
tan se val d'on som i d'on venim
tots som humans
i l'odi mai no pot ser el camí

No tenim por
que no, que no
no tenim por
que el so de les amenaces
no pugui vèncer els petons

No tenim por
que no, que no
no tenim por
que el poder d'una abraçada
ens impulsi a moure el món

Barcelona, és a la tarda
fa molt sol allà a la rambla
i l'olor de flors perfuma un record d'estiu

La tristesa ens acompanya
però la por ja no ens espanta
el temps continua, som més forts, més actius

Amb totes les llums enceses
la por fuig per la finestra
no podem saber on s'amaga
però som prous per aturar-la

tots units, ben junts
encarem el dia que es desperta
tan se val d'on som i d'on venim,
no ens faran mal
la força d'un sol poble és aquí
tots units, avui
cridem sí a l'amor i no a la guerra
tan se val d'on som i d'on venim
tots som humans
i l'odi mai no pot ser el camí
No tenim por
que no, que no
no tenim por
que el so de les amenaces
no pugui vèncer els petons
No tenim por
que no, que no
no tenim por
que el poder d'una abraçada
ens impulsi a moure el món
Barcelona, és a la tarda
fa molt sol allà a la rambla
i l'olor de flors perfuma un record d'estiu
English translation of the lyrics in Catalan:

Barcelona is in the afternoon
It is very sunny at The Rambla
And the smell of flowers perfumes a memory of summer
In August, it is very full
And there are all kinds of people
Until time stops and suddenly nobody laughs
You don’t know how, the lights turn down
We are scared and fear penetrates us
We don’t think that this could happen at home
But we are enough to stop it
All together, very close
We face the new day that is about to start
It doesn’t matter where we are from or where we come from
The power of one people is here
All together, today
We claim: yes to love and no to war
It doesn’t matter where we are from or where we come from
We are all human
And hate can never be the solution
We are not afraid
No, no
We are not afraid
The noise of threats can’t be louder than the sound of kisses
We are not afraid
No, no
We are not afraid
The power of a hug will make us change the world
Barcelona is in the afternoon
It is very sunny at The Rambla
And the smell of flowers perfumes a memory of summer
Sadness is walking with us
But the fear doesn’t scare us anymore
Time continues, we are stronger and more active
With all the lights turned on
The fear escapes through the windows
We can’t see where it is hidden
But we are enough to stop it
All together, very close
We face the new day that is about to start
It doesn’t matter where we are from or where we come from
The power of one people is here
All together, today
We claim: yes to love and no to war
It doesn’t matter where we are from or where we come from
We are all human
And hate can never be the solution
We are not afraid
No, no
We are not afraid
The noise of threats can’t be louder than the sound of kisses
We are not afraid
No, no
We are not afraid
The power of a hug will make us change the world
Barcelona is in the afternoon
It is very sunny at The Rambla
And the smell of flowers perfumes a memory of summer
