| Well I saw a ship a sailing
| Bueno, vi un barco navegando
|
| It was sailing on the sea
| estaba navegando en el mar
|
| It was full of pretty things
| estaba lleno de cosas bonitas
|
| For baby and for me
| Para el bebé y para mí
|
| There were sweetmeats in the cabin
| Había dulces en la cabina
|
| There were apples in the hold
| Había manzanas en la bodega
|
| The sails were made of silk
| Las velas estaban hechas de seda.
|
| And the masts were made of gold
| Y los mástiles eran de oro
|
| I saw a ship a sailing
| vi un barco navegando
|
| It was sailing on the sea
| estaba navegando en el mar
|
| It was full of pretty things
| estaba lleno de cosas bonitas
|
| For baby and for me
| Para el bebé y para mí
|
| The four-and-twenty sailors
| Los veinticuatro marineros
|
| That stood upon the decks
| Que estaba sobre las cubiertas
|
| Were four-and-twenty little mice
| Eran veinticuatro ratoncitos
|
| With chains around their necks
| Con cadenas alrededor de sus cuellos
|
| And the captain was a yellow duck
| Y el capitán era un pato amarillo
|
| With a packet on his back
| Con un paquete en la espalda
|
| And when the ship began to move
| Y cuando el barco empezó a moverse
|
| The captain cried, a latter lap
| El capitán gritó, una última vuelta
|
| I saw a ship a sailing
| vi un barco navegando
|
| It was sailing on the sea
| estaba navegando en el mar
|
| It was full of pretty things
| estaba lleno de cosas bonitas
|
| For baby and for me | Para el bebé y para mí |
