My sailor father took me sailing on his sailboat
Crecí mirando el viento transformar el movimiento de la mar

Y así fui comprendiendo con el tiempo lo que soy y lo que fui
And so I began to understand over time what I am and what I was

Porque en el mar quiero pasar

La vida entera sin recordar

Que existe un mundo rodeado de fronteras
