Jimmy Brown, das war ein Seemann
Jimmy Brown, he was a sailor
Und das Herz war ihm so schwer
And his heart was so heavy
Doch es blieben ihm zwei Freunde
But two friends remained for him
Die Gitarre und das Meer
The guitar and the sea
Jimmy wollt' ein Mädchen lieben
Jimmy wanted to love a girl
Doch ein andrer kam daher
But another came along
Und als Trost sind ihm geblieben
And as comfort, he was left with
Die Gitarre und das Meer
The guitar and the sea
Juanita hieß das Mädchen
The girl was named Juanita
Aus der großen fernen Welt
From the big distant world
Und so nennt er die Gitarre
And so he names the guitar
Die er in den Armen hält
Which he holds in his arms
Juanita Anita, Juanita Anita
Juanita Anita, Juanita Anita
Juanita Anita
Juanita Anita
Ob am Quay von Casablanca
Whether on the quay of Casablanca
Ob am Cap von Salvador
Whether at the Cape of Salvador
Singt er leis von Juanita
He sings softly of Juanita
Deren Liebe er verlor
Whose love he lost
Juanita hieß das Mädchen
The girl was named Juanita
Aus der großen fernen Welt
From the big distant world
Und so nennt er die Gitarre
And so he names the guitar
Die er in den Armen hält
Which he holds in his arms
Juanita Anita, Juanita Anita

Juanita Anita
Juanita Anita
Jimmy wollt' kein andres Mädchen
Jimmy didn't want any other girl
Doch sein Leben war nie leer
But his life was never empty
Denn es blieben ihm zwei Freunde
Because two friends remained for him
Die Gitarre und das Meer
The guitar and the sea

SeemannSailor

Seemann translates directly to "sailor" or "seaman". It's a classic German word that evokes images of adventure, the open sea, and perhaps a touch of melancholy.

In the context of the song, Jimmy Brown is a Seemann whose heart is heavy due to lost love. The word sets the scene for a romantic, slightly wistful narrative, making it an interesting and evocative choice for learners.
