The original poem's title is "Salm i paràbola de la memòria pròdiga" ("Psalm and parable of the prodigal memory") and Sílvia adapted it (as well as the lyrics) to create the song, "Pare Meu" (Father of Mine"). What I like the most is the beautiful voice Silvia has, which makes the words from Maria to stick deep into your soul. The song could be a great tribute to one's father.

Catalan poetry, sung
During the last months I've been listening to a song that is continuously played on the radio. After some research I've come up that this song is actually a Catalan poem written by the young poetess Maria Cabrera, and the woman who has composed and sings the music is Sílvia Pérez Cruz, both from the province of Girona (Catalonia).
The original poem's title is "Salm i paràbola de la memòria pròdiga" ("Psalm and parable of the prodigal memory") and Sílvia adapted it (as well as the lyrics) to create the song, "Pare Meu" (Father of Mine"). What I like the most is the beautiful voice Silvia has, which makes the words from Maria to stick deep into your soul. The song could be a great tribute to one's father.
