I'm on the bridge of my caravel
I carry my soul attached to the helm
A breath of love blows my sails
And I set off singing, set off singing
A divine song.
I neither make up my route nor lead the way
to where my ship is to sail.
I know that without a course I'm guided by my destiny
And one day, one day my ship will be
The queen of the seas.
Let my course be marked by a flying bird
An errant star or a swift cyclone
I want to see clear my bright star
And one day, one day my ship will be
The goddess of the seas.
