Only when the last tree has been cut down,
Only when the last river has been poisoned,
Only when the last fish has been caught,
Then only will you see that money cannot be eaten.

Umsett av Lev van Pelt
Ynskt mál: Katalanskt

Sols quan el darrer arbre haurà estat tallat,
Sols quan el darrer riu haurà estat enverinat,
Sols quan el darrer peix haurà estat pescat,
Sols llavors veureu que el diner no es pot pas menjar.

Viðmerking um umsetingina
També és vàlid llegir “veuràs”, a l’últim vers; però, en aquest cas, considerant el caràcter de la dita, crec més adient fer servir el plural (i el mateix faria notar al respecte d'algunes altres traduccions ja realitzades).

These are words of wisdom !

(unfortunately, deciders of this world* don't give a damn about it, you did well adding this remark about use of the plural form under your translation, Lev)

*Talking about the G20 that happened in Rio lately

I appreciate very much your comment (as it’s becoming usual
I choose to translate this Indian saying because -as you well observe- of its wisdom. Moreover, I saw that it was submitted by yourself.

Regarding the plural sense of that “you” in the last line, the more I think on it, the more I am convinced that it is plural; most probably being addressed to “us”: the European exploiters and ravagers of their ancestral lands (and, by the way, any other lands…)

Hi Lev! I'm not the one who submitted it first, but when I saw it I forwarded it to translation into many other languages

You're definitely right about the plural form, I edited the French version accordingly, and if there are some other versions to be edited, I'll do that (after dinner)

Excuse me, please, my new mistake of attribution, Francky. I'm again a little “dazzled and confused” , this night.

... And yes; (beyond the several edited versions by your hand, this same night) there are more translations in singular at this particular point.
Among them:
Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Lithuanian, Brazilian and, perhaps, Romanian (of this, I'm not sure).
(The German version follows our point of view, on the other side).

Same edit in the Romanian translation.

The Finnish translation also needs edit: tajuat to tajuatte.
