Bally Mena
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena in the harbor
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena in the harbor
Bring the Bally Mena to the dock
And paint the Bally Mena black
Bring the Bally Mena to the dock
And paint the Bally Mena black
Brothers we were and brothers we'll be
I till the soil and you sail the sea
To the ship Bally Mena you gave your best
But a raging sea laid your soul to rest
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena in the harbor
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena in the harbor
Bring the Bally Mena to the dock
And paint the Bally Mena black
Bring the Bally Mena to the dock
And paint the Bally Mena black
No more to hear, to hear the tale
Of how you tamed a mighty whale
And the girl who waited so patiently
Will walk no more by the sea
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena in the harbor
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena in the harbor
Bring the Bally Mena to the dock
And paint the Bally Mena black
Bring the Bally Mena to the dock
And paint the Bally Mena black
Bally Mena
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena en el puerto
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena en el puerto
Traigan el Bally Mena al muelle
Y pinten el Bally Mena de negro
Traigan el Bally Mena al muelle
Y pinten el Bally Mena de negro
Éramos hermanos y hermanos seremos
Yo labro la tierra y tú navegas en el mar
Al barco Bally Mena le diste lo mejor
Pero un mar furioso puso tu alma en reposo
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena en el puerto
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena en el puerto
Traigan el Bally Mena al muelle
Y pinten el Bally Mena de negro
Traigan el Bally Mena al muelle
Y pinten el Bally Mena de negro
Ya no se escuchará, escuchará la historia
De cómo domaste una ballena poderosa
Y la chica que esperaba tan pacientemente
Ya no caminará más junto al mar
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena en el puerto
Bally Mena, Bally Mena, Bally Mena en el puerto
Traigan el Bally Mena al muelle
Y pinten el Bally Mena de negro
Traigan el Bally Mena al muelle
Y pinten el Bally Mena de negro
