Forget your worries and prick up your ears (Californio)
We're sailing there and starting anew (Californio)
Because the people there are paving the streets with gold (Gold at every house)
I'll show you the way if you want to become rich
(Westward, straight ahead)
We're sailing to Californio
Here we go to Californio,
there where freedom dwells
We're sailing to Californio
Follow me to Californio,
Where life is worth it
Listen up when I tell you of the future
It shines like the sun on days so bright
Yes, Heaven on Earth, so it'll be called (Milk and honey flow)
The happiness of the world, the promised land (In paradise)
We're sailing to Californio
Here we go to Californio,
there where freedom dwells
We're sailing to Californio
Here we go to Californio,
Where life is worth it
Abandon the homeland and gather your courage (Think of all that gold!)
Over are the days full of worry and pain (Take as much as you want)
Come and follow me; we want to fulfill our dreams (No one stays behind)
The longing for treasure and riches is satisfied (Our fortune lies there)
