Gades
He put in a reliquary
all the streets of Cai
and he put in a reliquary
and took them as an offering
to the Virgin of the Rosary.
I like the trams
from Cai to San Fernando
I like the trams
because I see sailing
the boats in the bay.
Levante breeze
you are crazy and sailor
Levante breeze
tell the woman I love
that her kisses
are my banner.
Choruses
Last night I saw you in Santa Maria
or I remember La Perla
my gypsy
when I was on my way
look at that hair,
look at that face,
what a walk you had
flowers in your path
the balconies threw.
I have a sailboat (x2)
that when it enters Cai
the fishing dock
the merchant ship greets me
and the passenger ship
talks about the little waves
look at the walk
so sailor-like.
I work in fish
and in tobacco
I have 2 little suits
and some shoes
tell your mother girl,
tell your mother
I have 10 reales
to spend.
[Chorus]
And we will sail the waves,
the wide seas
and we will sail the waves,
no one will stop us
and we will arrive at the beach
of the sea of Cai
and we will bring salts
where there is none...
That's what there is.
