La Barca De Guaymas (The Boat From Guaymas) Lyrics in English Linda Ronstadt
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Barca De Guaymas (The Boat From Guaymas) by Linda Ronstadt from Spanish to English.
Al golpe del remo
At the stroke of the oar
Se agita en las olas
It stirs in the waves
Ligera la barca
Light is the boat
Al ruido del agua
At the sound of the water
Se ahonda mi pena
My sorrow deepens
Solloza mi alma
My soul sobs
Por tantos pesares
For so many griefs
Mi amor angustiado
My anguished love
Llorando te llama
Crying, it calls you
Y te hallas muy lejos
And you are very far away
Y sola, muy sola
And alone, very alone
Se encuentra mi alma
My soul finds itself
Cansado viajero
Tired traveler
Que tornas al puerto
That you return to the port
De tierras lejanas
From distant lands
¿Qué extraño piloto
What strange pilot
Condujo tu barca
Steered your boat
Sin vela y sin anclas?
Without sail and without anchors?
¿De qué región vienes
From which region do you come
Que has hecho pedazos
That you have torn to pieces
Tus velas tan blancas?
Your sails so white?
Te fuiste cantando
You left singing
Y vuelves trayendo
And you return bringing
La muerte en el alma
Death in the soul
Yo soy el marino
I am the sailor
Que alegre de Guaymas
That, joyful, from Guaymas
Salió una mañana
Went out one morning
Llevando en mi barca
Carrying in my boat
Como ave piloto
Like a pilot bird
Mi dulce esperanza
My sweet hope
Por mares ignotos
Through unknown seas
Mis santos anhelos
My sacred yearnings
Hundió la borrasca
The storm sank
Por eso están rotas
That is why they are broken
Mis velas y traigo
My sails, and I bring
La muerte en el alma
Death in the soul
Te fuiste cantando
You left singing
Y hoy vuelves trayendo
And today you come back bringing
La muerte en el alma
Death in the soul
