Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pescadores De Ensenada by Chalino Sanchez from Spanish to English.
Alegres o tristes salen de ENSENADA
Happy or sad, they leave ENSENADA
los barcos pesqueros que van a buscar
the fishing boats that go to search
las preciadas piesas que hay veces que
the precious catches that sometimes
encuentran ya que otros encuentran la
they find, while others find
muerte en el mar
death in the sea
adios al SAUZAL tambien SAN MIGUEL
goodbye to SAUZAL and also SAN MIGUEL
te veo medio triste nuestro timonel
I see you somewhat sad, our helmsman
dejaste a tu novio por ir te a pescar se
you left your boyfriend to go fishing
quedo llorando a la orilla del mar
he stayed crying on the shore of the sea
preparan las redes tambien el arpon
they prepare the nets and also the harpoon
buscando curbina o talves tiburon
looking for corvina or maybe shark
luchan con las olas por querer sacar
they fight against the waves to try to catch
algo que a los suyos alegro el hogar
something that brings joy to their loved ones at home
luchan como fieras contra los chubascos
they fight like beasts against the storms
siguiendo las ordenes del capitan
following the captain's orders
no saven si vuelven a ver a su amada o
they don't know if they will see their loved ones again
son sorprendidos por un vendaval
or if they will be surprised by a gale
al caer la noche se van a cubierta contando
as night falls, they go to the deck, counting
sus penas contemplando el mar
their sorrows, contemplating the sea
sus vidas son una pos no hay diferencia se
their lives are one, there is no difference, they

PRESA SANALONA Y SALINA CRUZ yo siempre
