Wellerman (versión en español)
Hermoti
Wellerman (Spanish version)
A ship once wanted to sail
And its name was the kettle of the sea
The wind blew and its bow sank
Row, boys, for God's sake! Hurray!
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
After a fortnight at sea
He ran into a whale
The captain was sworn
What hunting was I going to give him, hurr!
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
Before hitting the sea
The whale emerged and was able to catch it
He fights with his hands and a harpoon
But the whale fled, hurr!
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
The fight continues between the two
Although the captain is not a braggart
His creed is to have courage
And he clung to her, hurr!
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
Forty days have passed
And the fairness only increases
There are no ships in the afterlife
And she's not going to stop! Hurray!
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
Evil tongues say that
The battle is still going on
And the whaler will cry
Courage to the captain! Hurray!
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
Soon the whaler will come
And sugar, tea and rum will bring
When our singing ceases
It will be time to set sail
