Siete Mares

Seven Seas

Siete Mares

I'm a wandering sailorSoy marino vivo errante
I cross the seven seasCruzo por los siete mares
And as I am a navigatorY como soy navegante
I live among the stormsVivo entre las tempestades
Challenging the dangersDesafiando los peligros
That the seven seas give meQue me dan los siete mares

When the sea is calmCuando el mar esta tranquilo
And there are stars in the skyY hay estrellas en el cielo
Between sorrows and sighsEntre penas y suspiros
I speak to the woman I loveLe hablo a la mujer que quiero
And only the sea answers me:Y solo el mar me contesta:
Don't cry anymore sailorYa no llores marinero

They call me the seven seasMe dicen el siete mares
Because I go from port to portPorque ando de puerto en puerto
Carrying with me a love that's almost deadLlevando conmigo mismo un amor ya casi muerto
I would like to stayYo ya quisiera quedarme,
Close to my great loveJuntito a mi gran cariño
But that wasn't my life, sailing is my destinyPero ésa no fue mi vida, navegar es mi destino.

Little sailor starEstrellita marinera,
Companion of usCompañera de nosotros
What news do you have nowQue noticias tienes 'hora
About the one who drives me crazyDe esa que me trae tan loco,
If she still loves meSi es que todavia me quiere
Tell me little by littleDimelo poquito a poco

High waves, big wavesOlas altas, olas grandes
That drag me and take me awayQue me arrastran y me alejan
When we anchor in TampicoCuando anclemos en Tampico
Stay still for a little whileQuedense un ratito quietas
At least four nightsTan siquiera cuatro noches
If you understand my sorrowsSi es que entienden mis tristezas

They call me the seven seasMe dicen el siete mares
Because I go from port to portPorque ando de puerto en puerto
Carrying with me a love that's almost deadLlevando conmigo mismo un amor ya casi muerto
I would like to stayYo ya quisiera quedarme,
Close to my great loveJuntito a mi gran cariño
But that wasn't my life, sailing is my destiny.Pero ésa no fue mi vida, navegar es mi destino.
