At least that porky parliamentarian was wearing a bathing suit, so the photographer and security guards weren't struck blind when he climbed out of the creek.
Yes, it could have been worse....
Here's a side-by-side of the Catalan anthem (written in the late 19th century and based on a traditional tune). The minor point that la Gran Cataluña would be nothing without Spain, and in fact would have been swallowed by Napoleon, who destroyed much of the province during his assualt, is clearly lost on them. But romantic nationalism eats your brain, if you're thinking of making it a program of governance:
Catalunya triomfant,
tornarà a ser rica i plena.
Endarrera aquesta gent
tan ufana i tan superba.
Catalonia triumphant
Will once again be rich and bountiful,
Drive them back, these people
So conceited and so arrogant.
Bon colp de falç,
Bon colp de falç,
Defensors de la terra!
Bon colp de falç!
A good blow with the sickle,
A good blow with the sickle,
Defenders of the land!
A good blow with the sickle!
Ara és hora, segadors.
Ara és hora d'estar alerta.
Per quan vingui un altre juny
esmolem ben bé les eines.
Now is the time, reapers,
Now is the time to be alert.
For when another June comes,
Let us sharpen our tools well.
Bon colp de falç,
Bon colp de falç,
Defensors de la terra!
Bon colp de falç!
A good blow with the sickle,
A good blow with the sickle,
Defenders of the land!
A good blow with the sickle!
Que tremoli l'enemic
en veient la nostra ensenya.
Com fem caure espigues d'or,
quan convé seguem cadenes.
Let the enemy tremble
To see our banner.
Just as we cut down stalks of wheat,
When the time is right, chains will follow.
Bon colp de falç,
Bon colp de falç,
Defensors de la terra!
Bon colp de falç!
A good blow with the sickle,
A good blow with the sickle,
Defenders of the land!
A good blow with the sickle!
