Lyrics
E todo o mar se cobriu de infinitas riquezas
De anil e sedas e jóias e de odoríferas drogas
De si deitava nas praias moscatéis e licores
Adoçando de sua bravura
O mar
Nas margens adamascadas andam náufragos dispersos
Mariscando lagostas ostras choupas taínhas
E bebem vinhos distintos de singulares aromas
Se anda ao longo da costa em ofertas
O mar
E entregou Leonor
Seus cabelos aos ventos
Na quietude tão só
Tão ausente de tudo
E mais quieta era a luz
No sossego das águas
E uma música escorre dos céus
Devagar
E fazem tendas de aduelas de alcatifas majestosas
De outras peças de ouro e prata de cambraias e cetins
Cobertas de colchas vermelhas de rosários de cristal
Mas mais garrido do que toda aquela praia
O mar
E fazem velas das camisas e outras de damasco verde
As amarras de outros panos de veludo carmesim
De um remo fizeram o mastro
E a enxárcia de uma linha
E tão docemente embala este batel
O mar
Se todo o mar se cobriu de infinitas riquezas
Lyrics translation
And the whole sea was covered with infinite riches
Of anil and silks and jewellery and of odoriferous drugs
From itself lay on the beaches muscatels and liqueurs
Sweetening of your bravery
The sea
On the banks of adamascada are scattered castaways
Shellfish lobsters oysters poplars tainhas
And they drink different wines with unique aromas
If you walk along the coast on offers
The sea
And delivered Leonor
Your hair to the winds
In the quiet so alone
So absent from everything
And quieter was the light
In the calm of the waters
And a song flows from the heavens
Slowly
And they make tents out of staves of majestic carpets
Of other parts of gold and silver, of Cambrils and scythes
Covered with red bedspreads of Crystal rosaries
But more garrido than all that beach
The sea
And they make candles from shirts and other green apricot
The ties of other crimson velvet cloths
From an OAR made the mast
And the rinsing of a line
And so sweetly pack this batel
The sea
If the whole sea was covered with infinite riches
