Lo Stornello Del Marinaro

Oh oh oh......
La la la......

At dawn the sailor sets off
with dreams in his heart
and the sun at the bow.
As he drifts away from his lighthouse
he forgets who
cares for him now.

But why, sailor,
do you seek a heart that’s not around,
when you left your love behind
who cries and is dying just for you?
Sailor, tell her yes,
you can only love like this once.

Oh oh oh......
La la la......

But why, sailor,
you’ve been gone for a year, why,
the winter has passed and she hopes,
spring will come, but without you.
Sailor, come back here,
you can only love like this once.

Oh oh oh......
La la la......
