Lyrics
¿A dónde vas marinero
si es noche de tempestad?
Con un amigo que tengo
voy a romper la amistad.
¿Por qué llamas marinero,
a ese Jesús del Altar?
Hable pronto nazareno,
no encuentro el barco pesquero
que ayer salía a la mar.
Hable pronto, marinero,
la mar se tragó a mi niño
con tu crucifijo puesto,
fuíste mi mejor amigo.
¿Adónde estabas, marinero?
Fuíste mi sombra y mi amigo
las noches de temporal.
Tú no tenías barquito,
yo no sabía rezar.
Fuíste mi sombra y mi amigo
mi luz, mi fe y mi verdad
y en un negro crucifijo
tú te mojabas conmigo
cuándo salía a pescar.
Hable pronto, marinero,
la mar se tragó a mi niño
con tu crucifijo puesto,
fuíste mi mejor amigo.
¿Adónde estabas, marinero?
Clavó los pies en la playa
desafiando a la mar.
Yo te gané mil batallas,
¿por qué te quieres vengar?
Yo conozco tus ideas
tus locuras y tu maldad.
Mándame con la marea
al que perdió la pelea
¡maldita sea la mar!
Hable pronto, marinero,
la mar se tragó a mi niño
con tu crucifijo puesto,
fuíste mi mejor amigo.
¿Adónde estabas, marinero?
Vi que en sus manos llevaba
diez estampas «apretás».
Y bebiéndose las lágrimas
se las tiró en el Altar.
Como el que toca la Luna
y después se vuelve atrás
las recogió una a una
y preguntó con el cura
pa' poderse confesar.
Padre, dile al nazareno,
la mar se tragó a mi niño
con su crucifijo puesto,
no tengo hijo ni amigo,
perdóname marinero.
Hable pronto, marinero,
la mar se tragó a mi niño
con tu crucifijo puesto,
fuíste mi mejor amigo.
¿Adónde estabas, marinero?
Lyrics translation
Where Are you going sailor
if it's stormy night?
With a friend I have
I'm going to break the friendship.
Why do you call sailor,
that Jesus at the Altar?
Speak soon Nazarene,
I can't find the fishing boat.
that I was going out to sea yesterday.
Speak soon, sailor.,
the sea swallowed my child
with your crucifix on,
you were my best friend.
Where Were you, sailor?
You were my shadow and my friend
stormy nights.
You didn't have a little boat.,
I didn't know how to pray.
You were my shadow and my friend
my light, my faith and my truth
and on a black crucifix
you used to get wet with me.
when I went fishing.
Speak soon, sailor.,
the sea swallowed my child
with your crucifix on,
you were my best friend.
Where Were you, sailor?
He nailed his feet on the beach
defying the sea.
I won you a thousand battles,
why do you want revenge?
I know your ideas.
your follies and your wickedness.
Send me with the tide
the one who lost the fight
damn the sea!
Speak soon, sailor.,
the sea swallowed my child
with your crucifix on,
you were my best friend.
Where Were you, sailor?
I saw that in his hands he carried
ten "squeeze" prints.
And drinking the tears
he threw them at the Altar.
Like the one that touches the Moon
and then it turns back
he picked them up one by one.
and he asked the priest
so you can confess.
Father, tell the Nazarene,
the sea swallowed my child
with his crucifix on,
I have no son or friend,
forgive me, sailor.
Speak soon, sailor.,
the sea swallowed my child
with your crucifix on,
you were my best friend.
Where Were you, sailor?
