Lyrics
Con sombrero de ala ancha
Y un clavel en la solapa
Un don Juan se hizo a la mar
Con la tierra a sus espaldas
La aventura en su mirada
Su guitarra y un cantar
Oh marinero, oh marinero
De su capa hizo un poncho
De su guitarra un charango
De su tierra otra mar
Tú eres la otra España
La que huele a caña, tabaco y brea
Eres la perezosa
La de piel dorada, la marinera
Ah ah ah marinera, ah ah ah marinera
Entre notas de guitarra
Les hablaba de su tierra
De un clavel y de un balcón
Donde aún llora una niña
Esperando a aquél que un día
Se olvidó decirle adiós
Oh marinero, oh marinero
Con sombrero de ala ancha
Y un clavel en la solapa
Un don Juan se hizo a la mar…
Lyrics translation
With wide brim hat
And a carnation on the lapel
A Don Juan was made to the sea
With the Earth behind them
Adventure in your eyes
Your guitar and a sing
Oh sailor, Oh sailor
From his cape he made a poncho
From his guitar a charango
From their land another sea
You are the other Spain
The one that smells like cane, tobacco and pitch
You're the lazy one.
The one with the golden skin, the sailor
Ah ah ah sailor, ah ah ah sailor
Between guitar notes
I told them about their land
From a carnation and a balcony
Where a little girl still cries
Waiting for that one day
He forgot to say goodbye
Oh sailor, Oh sailor
With wide brim hat
And a carnation on the lapel
A Don Juan was made to the sea…
