Celtic Sea

A último momento todo estaba bienAt the last minute everything was okay
Compramos nuestros boletos, estábamos en caminoWe bought our tickets, we were on our way
Nos costó seiscientos sesenta y seis francosIt cost us six hundred and sixty-six Francs
Pero eso no significaba nadaBut that didn't mean anything

En camino a Irlanda en un barco francésOn our way to Ireland on a French boat
Y tenía un capitán españolAnd she had a Spanish captain
Nos dio la bienvenida a bordo y nos contó algunos chistesHe welcomed us aboard and told us some jokes
Intentamos reírnos de ellosWe tried our best to laugh at them

Dijo, 'Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh noHe said, "Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
No podemos tener mujeres aquíWe can't have any women on here
¿No lo saben, no lo saben, no lo saben, no lo sabenDon't you know, don't you know, don't you know, don't you know
Los camioneros son como piratas, mi querida'Truckers are like pirates, my dear"

Dijo que no nos preocupáramos, que solo era una bromaHe said not to worry, it was only a joke
Y nos mostró nuestra habitaciónAnd he showed us to our room
Y mientras tiraba mi mochila en la camaAnd as I was throwing my pack on the bed
Un hombre entró detrás tuyoA man came in behind you

Dijo, 'Oye, pequeña, ¿estás sola?Said, "Hey, little lassie, are you alone?
¿Necesitas compañía?'Do you need some company?"
Luego me vio a mí y se dio la vuelta para irseThen he saw me and he turned to leave
Diciendo que lo sentíaSayin' he was sorry

Cerramos la puerta y la cerramos con llaveWe closed our door and we locked it shut
Y saltamos a nuestras mullidas camasAnd jumped up on our fluffy beds
Las mantas y almohadas eran un lujo para nosotrasBlankets and pillows were luxury to us,
Tuvimos veinticuatro horas de ellosWe had twenty-four hours of them

El capitán golpeó y nos despertóThe captain he knocked and he woke us up
Nos dijo que era hora de comerHe told us it was time to eat
Había pastel, papas fritas, todo tipo de bebidasThere was cake, there were fries, there were all sorts of drinks
Y luego miramos hacia el marAnd then we looked out at the sea

Las olas, las olas, las olas, subíanThe waves, the waves, the waves, they rose
Arriba, treinta piesUp, up thirty feet
Luego abajo, abajo, abajo ibanThen down, down, down they'd go
Y nuestros estómagos empezaron a hundirseAnd our stomachs started to sink

El capitán, el capitán, nos salvó la vidaThe captain, the captain, well he saved our lives
Nos dio unas pequeñas pastillas blancasHe gave us some tiny white pills
Nos dormimos el resto del viajeWe went to sleep for the rest of the ride,
Despertamos ante la vista de colinas verdesWoke up to the sight of green hills
