Lyrics
Español
Pasajera extraña, sin destino, Iba en aquel barco hacia el olvido. Sola en la cubierta se paseaba, Con su lánguida mirada Contemplando siempre al mar. Era toda ella tan extraña Como extraño ha sido su final... Extraña que una noche amé Y nunca más he vuelto a ver. Jamás podré olvidar con qué dolor Lloró en mis brazos. Después... ¡Qué triste es recordar! Por siempre se perdió en el mar. Extraña y gris mujer, ¡No sé por qué, estoy llorándote! Nada supe yo de su pasado, De su corazón atormentado. Ni siquiera el nombre, ni su rumbo, Sólo sé que era profundo El recuerdo que la hirió. Pasajera extraña, sin destino Ya encontró la paz, tu corazón.
English · machine translation
Strange passenger, without destination, She was on that ship towards oblivion. Alone on the deck she wandered, With her languid gaze Always gazing at the sea. She was all so strange As strange was her end... Strange that one night I loved And never saw again. I can never forget with what pain She cried in my arms. Afterwards... How sad it is to remember! Forever lost at sea. Strange and gray woman, I don't know why, I'm crying for you! I knew nothing of her past, Of her tormented heart. Not even the name, nor her course, I only know that it was deep The memory that wounded her. Strange passerby, with no destination She has already found peace, your heart.
