Timoneiro [English translation]

It's not me who navigates me

Who navigates me is the sea

It's not me who navigates me

Who navigates me is the sea

It is what carries me

Softly, as if it wasn't leading me at all

It is what carries me

Softly, as if it wasn't leading me at all

The more I paddle, the more I pray

For this journey that the sea

Makes around the sea itself

Never to end

My old man once told me

In his way to give advice

Listen, the sea has no hair

For you to hold on to

It's not me who navigates me

Who navigates me is the sea

It's not me who navigates me

Who navigates me is the sea

It is what carries me

Softly, as if it wasn't leading me at all

It is what carries me

Softly, as if it wasn't leading me at all

I was never a helmsman

Because I'm not one to sail

My life's helm

Is governed by God

And when someone asks me

How to swim

I say I don't navigate

Who navigates me is the sea

It's not me who navigates me

Who navigates me is the sea

It's not me who navigates me

Who navigates me is the sea

It is what carries me

Softly, as if it wasn't leading me at all

It is what carries me

Softly, as if it wasn't leading me at all

The fishnet of my fate

Is just like a fisherman's

When it's pulled up empty

It's packed with pain

I live in whirlpool

God knows what He does

The wave that carries me away

Is the same that brings me back
