Magellano [English translation]

[Intro]

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

[Verse 1]

I have dreamwrecked

Got stuck just halfway through love

Departures and a thousand returns

For it strikes fear

To put out to sea

To kiss happiness in the mouth on impulse

Bend the wind as if it were my willpower

[Hook]

Magellan, having got to the Land of Fire 1,

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Magellan, having got to the Land of Fire,

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

[Bridge]

Sweat, breath, heart

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

Sweat, breath, heart

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

[Verse 2]

I have forsaken my path

Placed credence in every lie

Locking my heart, leaving

A wake behind

And every voyage

Was a mirage, a gulf of happiness

Taking time, as long as I don't run out of it

[Hook]

Magellan, having got to the Land of Fire,

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Magellan, having got to the Land of Fire,

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

[Post-Hook]

And I will go outside and stem the wind

And break the silence wherever there is some

I'd rather do that than stay still ashore

And forgive myself my own cowardice

[Bridge]

Sweat, breath, heart

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

Sweat, breath, heart

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

[Hook]

Magellan, having got to the Land of Fire,

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Magellan, having got to the Land of Fire,

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

Couldn't possibly know you could sail round it and beyond

[Bridge]

Sweat, breath, heart

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

Sweat, breath, heart

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho

Sweat, breath, heart

[Outro]

Looking inside yourself

Uncover another card 2 for happiness's sake

Bend the wind

As if it were my willpower

As if it were my willpower

Hey ho

Row row

Hey ho
