Lyrics

Allá en el puerto
nos conocimos
amor divino
yo le juré
fuimos andando
por el camino
cerca del puerto
yo le besé
y hasta le dije
que le quería
y que sería
mi amor más fiel
pero él me dijo
que no podía
que me quería
pero se fue.
Canta cantinero
bebe tu conmigo
dame buen amigo
un trago de ron
pero dime en que velero
el se me marchó.
Su piel cobriza
como de seda
fue la primera
que acaricié
las noches blancas
de luna llena
sobre la arena
yo le lloré
hoy le recuerdo
para mis penas
porque mis venas
secas están
de tanto y tanto
como he llorado
se me ha secado
mi corazón
(Gracias a alfaleona por esta letra)

Lyrics translation

There at the port
we met
divine love
I swore to him
we went on our way.
along the way
close to the port
I kissed him.
and I even told him
that I loved him
and that would be
my most faithful love
but he told me
that I couldn't
that he loved me
but he left.
Cantinero sings
drink yours with me
give me a good friend
a drink of rum
but tell me which sailboat
he left me.
Her skin is copper
like silk
it was the first
that I stroked
the White Nights
full moon
on the sand
I cried
today I remember him
for my sorrows
because my veins
dry are
so much and so much
how I cried
it's dried up.
my heart
