Letras de The Sea Captain - Sandy Denny

The Sea Captain (original)

To cross the wide sea I deserted
From the shore I did fly
I thought it time that I traveled
So I took to the roads of the sky
It was late and the wind it did gently blow
Oh, the night it was calm
I saw the flower of the ocean
And the universe did me no harm, it said to fly on
The sea captain he loved the ocean
But his ship was on fire
His hands they did stretch out before him
For to take one of many desires, but there was no time
Across the wide sea he departed
From the ship he did fly
He thought it time that he traveled
And I saw him as he passed by, and I saw him as he passed by

(traducción)

Para cruzar el ancho mar deserté
Desde la orilla sí volé
Pensé que era hora de que viajara
Así que tomé los caminos del cielo
Era tarde y el viento soplaba suavemente
Oh, la noche estaba tranquila
Vi la flor del océano
Y el universo no me hizo daño, decía volar sobre
El capitán de mar que amaba el océano
Pero su barco estaba en llamas
Sus manos se extendieron delante de él
Para tomar uno de muchos deseos, pero no hubo tiempo
A través del ancho mar partió
Desde el barco que voló
Pensó que era hora de que viajara
Y lo vi al pasar, y lo vi al pasar
