Lyrics

Español

Las olas van golpeando sin cesar la quilla de mi barco de ultramar, entramos en el mar de las Antillas en la tarde gris y tibia y allá lejos se ve el puerto... Fue bravo capear viento y temporal, ya vuelan sobre el mar las golondrinas y es enorme la alegría de mis hombres al llegar... Se ven blancos pañuelos mucha gente hay en el muelle, es más azul el cielo vamos a desembarcar... ¡Mi madre! ¡La estoy viendo! Y al refugiarse entre mis brazos acaricia mi pelo y se pone a llorar... Iremos a vivir a la ciudad no temas, nunca más he de zarpar, ya nunca estarás sola, madre mía. ¿Por qué lloras y me miras? ¡Oh! Qué frías están tus manos. Sí, mamá, es verdad. Dejaré el mar... Mañana cuando el sol anuncie el día he de hincarme de rodillas en la tumba de papá.

English · machine translation

The waves are pounding incessantly the keel of my overseas ship, we enter the sea of the Antilles in the gray and warm afternoon and far away you can see the port... It was hard to weather wind and storm, the swallows are already flying over the sea and the joy of my men of my men upon arrival... White handkerchiefs are seen there are many people on the pier, the sky is bluer we're going ashore... My mother! I can see her! And as she takes refuge in my arms she caresses my hair and starts to cry... We'll go to live in the city don't be afraid, I'll never set sail again, you'll never be alone, my mother. Why do you cry and look at me? Oh! How cold your hands are. Yes, mother, it's true. I'll leave the sea... Tomorrow when the sun announces the day I'll kneel on my knees at father's grave.
