Lyrics

Español

Buenos Aires... Se engalana majestuoso de esplendor, El blanco y el azul, flamea bajo el sol La enorme multitud entona esta canción. Vito Dumas, navegante, solitario capitán Tu brújula es llegar, tu norte es el timón, Acero y voluntad tu corazón. El límite del mundo, cielo, mar y luz Se mece en lo profundo del abismo azul. Más fuerte que titán, Más fuerte que el dolor Confiado y sin temor, bogando va... Se acerca la tormenta, agua, viento y mar Enfila su goleta, en lucha desigual, Arrecia el temporal, Pequeño es su timón Lo alienta sin cesar un gran amor... De un polo al otro polo, resonando va El nombre más glorioso que nos dio la mar, Hazañas sin igual, proezas de emoción La voz del corazón cantando está. La luz de las estrellas y la Cruz del Sur Titilan aun más bellas en su noche azul, La ausencia de un querer Se agranda en el soñar El beso maternal, volver, volver...

English · machine translation

Buenos Aires... It is adorned with majestic splendor, The white and the blue, flaming under the sun The huge crowd intones this song. Vito Dumas, navigator, lonely captain Your compass is to reach, your north is the rudder, Steel and will your heart. The boundary of the world, sky, sea and light Rocks deep in the blue abyss. Stronger than titan, Stronger than pain Confident and unafraid, rowing goes... The storm approaches, water, wind and sea He steers his schooner, in unequal struggle, The storm rages, Small is his rudder He's endlessly encouraged by a great love... From one pole to the other pole, resounding it goes The most glorious name the sea has given us, Feats unparalleled, feats of emotion The voice of the heart is singing. The light of the stars and the Southern Cross Twinkle even more beautiful in their blue night, The absence of wanting It enlarges in the dreaming The maternal kiss, come back, come back...
