Translation of the song lyrics La Otra España - Mocedades

La Otra España (original)

Con sombrero de ala ancha
y un clavel en la solapa
un don Juan se hizo a la mar
con la tierra a sus espaldas
la aventura en su mirada
su guitarra y un cantar
oh marinero, oh marinero.
De su capa hizo un poncho
de su guitarra un charango
de su tierra otra mar.
T eres la otra Espaa
la que huele a caa, tabaco y brea
eres la perezosa
la de piel dorada, la marinera
ah ah ah marinera, ah ah ah marinera.
Entre notas de guitarra
les hablaba de su tierra
de un clavel y de un balcn
donde an llora una nia
esperando a aqul que un da
se olvid decirle adis
oh marinero, oh marinero.
Con sombrero de ala ancha
y un clavel en la solapa
un don Juan se hizo a la mar…

(translation)

With a wide-brimmed hat
and a carnation on the lapel
a don juan went to sea
with the earth behind them
the adventure in his eyes
his guitar and a song
oh sailor, oh sailor.
From his cape he made a poncho
of his guitar of him a charango
from his land from him another sea.
You are the other Spain
the one that smells of caa, tobacco and tar
you are the lazy one
the one with golden skin, the sailor
ah ah seafaring, ah ah seafaring.
between guitar notes
he spoke to them about his land
of a carnation and a balcony
where a girl cries
waiting for that one day
forgot to say goodbye
oh sailor, oh sailor.
With a wide-brimmed hat
and a carnation on the lapel
a Don Juan went to sea...
