Barquito de papel
Paper boat
Sin nombre, sin patrón
No name, no pattern
Y sin bandera
And without a flag
Navegando sin timón
Sailing rudderless
Donde la corriente quiera
Wherever the current wants
Aventurero audaz
Bold adventurer
Jinete de papel
Paper rider
Cuadriculado
Graph
Que mi mano sin pasado
That my hand without a past
Sentó a lomos de un canal
He sat on the back of a canal
Cuando el canal era un río
When the canal was a river
Cuando el estanque era el mar
When the pond was the sea
Y navegar
And navigate
Era jugar con el viento
It was playing with the wind
Era una sonrisa a tiempo
It was a smile in time
Fugándose feliz
Eloping happily
De país en país
From country to country
Entre la escuela y mi casa
Between school and home
Después el tiempo pasa
Then time passes
Y te olvidas de aquel
And you forget about that
Barquito de papel
Paper boat
Barquito de papel
Paper boat
En qué extraño arenal
In what a strange sandy area
Habrán parado
They will have stopped
Tu sonrisa y mi pasado
Your smile and my past
Vestidos de colegial
Schoolboy dresses
Cuando el canal era un río
When the canal was a river
Cuando el estanque era el mar
When the pond was the sea
Y navegar
And navigate
Era jugar con el viento
It was playing with the wind
Era una sonrisa a tiempo
It was a smile in time
