Marinhêro [English translation]

Sailor

You don’t have all day

Of a half-day

You only have the dawn

But that’s still better than foul weather

Sailor

My father was a sailor

His wife became a widow before her time,

But that’s still better than foul weather

Foul weather, foul weather

That plunges the village

Into unbearable sadness

Foul weather, foul weather

Those recollections are too difficult

For my memory

Faced with the sea, only women crying:

“You took them from us!”
