Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
The night was black rain fallin' downLa noche era oscura, la lluvia caía
I looked my baby she's no where aroun'Miré a mi nena, no estaba por aquí
Chased her footsteps down to the shoreSeguí sus pasos hasta la orilla
Afraid she's gone for ever moreTemía que se hubiera ido para siempre
Well I looked at the sea, seemed to sayMiré al mar, parecía decir
I took your baby from you awayTe quité a tu nena
I heard a voice cry in the deepEscuché una voz llorar en lo profundo
Come join me baby in my endless sleepÚnete a mí, nena, en mi sueño interminable
Why did we quarrel why did we fight¿Por qué discutimos, por qué peleamos?
Why did I leave her alone last night¿Por qué la dejé sola anoche?
That's why her foot steps ran down to the seaPor eso sus pasos corrieron hacia el mar
That's wy my baby has gone from mePor eso mi nena se ha ido de mí
Well I looked at the sea seemed to sayMiré al mar, parecía decir
I took your baby from you awayTe quité a tu nena
Well I heard a voice cry in the deepEscuché una voz llorar en lo profundo
Come join me baby in my endless sleepÚnete a mí, nena, en mi sueño interminable
Endless sleepSueño interminable
Out in the water heart full of fearEn el agua, con el corazón lleno de miedo
There in the breaker I saw her nearAllí en las olas la vi cerca
Reached for my darlin' held her to meAlcancé a mi amor, la abracé
Dragged her away from the angry seaLa alejé del mar enojado
Well I looked at the sea seemed to sayMiré al mar, parecía decir
I took your baby from you awayTe quité a tu nena
I heard a voice cryin' in the deepEscuché una voz llorar en lo profundo
I took your baby from the endless sleepTe quité a tu nena del sueño interminable
I grabbed my baby from the endless sleepAgarré a mi nena del sueño interminable
