Today is Sant Antoni and, like every year, The Grandma spends these days in Mallorca with her family and friends enjoying the festivities that are celebrated all over the island with foguerons and with the best folk music like balls de bot, fandangos, mateixes, jotes and boleros.
The Grandma will be on the island until Wednesday to be able to celebrate Sant Sebastià in Palma.
Sant Antoni, gloriós, gloriós,
de Viana anomenat
siau sempre advocat:
de tot perill guardau-mos.
Sant Antoni i el dimoni
jugaven a trenta-u.
El dimoni va fer trenta,
Sant Antoni trenta-u.
Sant Antoni n'és vengut
amb una mudada honesta
que molts d’anys poguem fer festa
amb alegria i salut.
Devem sempre alabar-vos
de gust i de bona gana,
Sant Antoni de Viana
de tot perill guardau-mos.
Saint Anthony, glorious, glorious,
of Viana called
be always an advocate:
from all danger keep us.
Saint Anthony and the devil
were playing thirty-one.
The devil made thirty,
Saint Anthony thirty-one.
Saint Anthony is sold
with an honest change
that for many years we can celebrate
with joy and health.
We must always praise you
with pleasure and good will,
Saint Anthony of Viana
from all danger keep us.

Aquesta és sa música que escoltàvem cada estiu.
This is the music we listened to every summer.
