These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Salí en mi botecito a navegar
I went out on my boat to sail
A recorrer las olas de la mar
To roam the waves of the sea
Llevaba mi barita de pescar
I was carrying my little fishing bar
Mi cuerda y mi guitarra para tocar
My string and my guitar to play
Y de pronto vino un vendaval
And suddenly a gale came
Y con fuerzas comencé a gritar
And with strength I started screaming
Tú lo que quieres que yo busque a mi capitán
You want me to look for my captain
Jesús está en el bote
Jesus is on the boat
En el bote
On the boat
Aunque los vientos soplen
Even if the winds blow
En el bote
On the boat
Mi ancla y mi soporte
My anchor and my support
En el bote
On the boat
Y el capitán del bote
And the captain of the boat
Y continúe mi viaje sin temor
And continue my journey without fear
Con nubecitas bellas de estribor
With beautiful starboard clouds
Y vi gaviotas bailando valet
And I saw seagulls dancing valet
Y un delfín haciendo un gran piruet
And a dolphin making a big pirouet
Y de pronto vino un tiburón
And suddenly a shark came
Con cara de pillo y de ladrón
With the face of a crook and a thief
Mira
Look
Tú lo que quieres que yo busque a mi capitán
You want me to look for my captain
Jesús está en el bote
Jesus is on the boat
En el bote
On the boat
No hay tiburón que azote
There's no shark whipping
En el bote
On the boat
El guía de mi norte
The guide to my north
En el bote
On the boat
Y el capitán del bote
And the captain of the boat
En el bote
On the boat
Que jesús está en el bote tú lo ves tú lo ves
That jesus is in the boat you see it you see it
En el bote
On the boat
Y aunque los vientos soplen
And even if the winds blow
En el bote
On the boat
Mi ancla y mi soporte
My anchor and my support
En el bote
On the boat
Y el capitán del bote
And the captain of the boat
En el bote
On the boat
Y si viene el ojo de un ciclón
And if a cyclone's eye comes
Con más fuerza canto la canción
With more force I sing the song
Todo lo puedo en mi cristo que es mi capitán
All I can in my Christ who is my captain
Jesús está en el bote
Jesus is on the boat
En el bote
On the boat
No hay tiburón que azote
There's no shark whipping
En el bote
On the boat
El guía de mi norte
The guide to my north
En el bote
On the boat
Y el capitán del bote
And the captain of the boat
En el bote
On the boat
Que jesús está en el bote tú lo ves tú lo ves
That jesus is in the boat you see it you see it
En el bote
On the boat
Y aunque los vientos soplen
And even if the winds blow
En el bote
On the boat
Mi ancla y mi soporte
My anchor and my support
En el bote
On the boat
Y el capitán del bote
And the captain of the boat
En el bote
On the boat
