Lyrics of Pequeño Marinero - Jose Luis Perales

Pequeño Marinero (original)

Hoy siento no poder cantarte
Una canción de amor
Hoy tengo amigo mío
Roto el corazón roto el corazón
Hoy he visto un velero sin marinero
Y a la deriva jugaba
Con las olas y se reía y se reía
Y en una playa una mujer de luto lloraba
Por la vida que no dio fruto, que no dio fruto
Y preguntaba, cuando miraba alto
¿Por qué si soy tan pobre, me robas tanto
Me robas tanto?
Tenía el viento como amigo y la mirada azul
Un sol de vacaciones y su juventud y su juventud
Tenía unos amigos y un pueblo viejo
Que andaba en fiestas
Y un barco de bidones entre la hierba
Entre la hierba
El tenía el alma de viejo marinero
Y se quedó en el agua con su velero
Con su velero
Y en una playa una mujer de luto lloraba por la vida
Que no dio fruto, que no dio fruto

(translation)

Today I'm sorry I can't sing to you
A love song
Today I have a friend of mine
broken heart broken heart
Today I have seen a sailboat without a sailor
And adrift played
With the waves and laughed and laughed
And on a beach a woman in mourning cried
For the life that she did not bear fruit, that she did not bear fruit
And she asked, when she looked up
Why, if I am so poor, do you steal so much from me?
Do you steal so much from me?
I had the wind as a friend and a blue gaze
A vacation sun and its youth and its youth
I had some friends and an old town
who went to parties
And a boat of drums in the grass
among the grass
He had the soul of an old sailor
And he stayed in the water with his sailboat
with his sailboat
And on a beach a woman in mourning cried for life
That he did not bear fruit, that he did not bear fruit
