At The San Blas Pier

En El Muelle de San Blas

She said goodbye to her loveElla despidió a su amor
He departed on a boat from the San Blas PierÉl partió en un barco en el muelle de San Blas
He swore he would returnÉl juró que volvería
And, drenched in tears, she swore she would waitY, empapada en llanto, ella juró que esperaría

Thousands of moons passedMiles de lunas pasaron
And she was always at the dock, waitingY siempre ella estaba en el muelle, esperando
Many afternoons were nestedMuchas tardes se anidaron
Nested in her hair and on her lipsSe anidaron en su pelo y en sus labios

She was wearing the same dressLlevaba el mismo vestido
So just in case he came back, he wouldn't be mistakenY por si él volviera, no se fuera a equivocar
The crabs were biting herLos cangrejos le mordían
Her clothing, her sadness and hopeSu ropaje, su tristeza y su ilusión

And time slipped byY el tiempo se escurrió
And her eyes were filled with sunrisesY sus ojos se le llenaron de amaneceres
And she fell in love with the seaY del mar se enamoró
And her body was rooted to the dockY su cuerpo se enraizó en el muelle

AloneSola
Alone in the oblivionSola en el olvido
AloneSola
Alone with her spiritSola con su espíritu
AloneSola
Alone with her love, the seaSola con su amor, el mar
AloneSola
At the San Blas PierEn el muelle de San Blas

Her hair whitenedSu cabello se blanqueó
But no ship returned her love to herPero ningún barco a su amor le devolvía
And in town, they talked about herY en el pueblo, le decían
They called her the crazy woman of the San Blas PierLe decían la loca del muelle de San Blas

And one afternoon in AprilY una tarde de abril
They tried to commit her to an asylumLa intentaron trasladar al manicomio
Nobody could tear her awayNadie la pudo arrancar
And they never could separate her from the seaY, del mar, nunca jamás la separaron

AloneSola
Alone in the oblivionSola en el olvido
AloneSola
Alone with her spiritSola con su espíritu
AloneSola
Alone with her love, the seaSola con su amor, el mar
AloneSola
At the San Blas PierEn el muelle de San Blas

AloneSola
Alone in the oblivionSola en el olvido
AloneSola
Alone with her spiritSola con su espíritu
AloneSola
Alone with the Sun and the seaSola con el Sol y el mar
AloneSola

Oh, aloneOh, sola
Alone in the oblivionSola en el olvido
AloneSola
Alone with her spiritSola con su espíritu
AloneSola
Alone with her love, the seaSola con su amor, el mar
AloneSola
At the San Blas PierEn el muelle de San Blas

She stayed, she stayedSe quedó, se quedó
Alone, aloneSola, sola
She stayed, she stayedSe quedó, se quedó
With the Sun and the seaCon el Sol y con el mar

She stayed thereSe quedó ahí
She stayed until the endSe quedó hasta el fin
She stayed thereSe quedó ahí
She stayed at the San Blas PierSe quedó en el muelle de San Blas

Ooh, ohUoh
Alone, she was left all aloneSola, sola se quedó
