Meu amor marinheiro [English translation]

I feel jealous

Of the green waves of the sea

That insistently try to kiss

your body, as you stand before the tides.

I feel jealous

Of the wind that betrays me

Kissing you as you stand in the bow,

And runs away through the deck.

I feel jealous

Of the light of the full moon

That curls up around your body

In order to dance with you

I feel jealous

Of the waves that rise along your way

and of the mermaids that sing

That sing to charm you

Oh sailor, my love

Oh lord of my desires

Don't let the moon at night

Steal the color from your hair

Don't look at the stars

Because they would steal

The green of your eyes

These eyes color of the sea.
