Chapter 12 Andalusian Sailor's Nocturne

From Cattis to Gibraltar, What a trail. the sea from my sighs, recognize my steps. Oh, girl, girl, How many ships stop in the port of Malaga! From Catis to Cervera, How many little lemons! The lemon tree from my sigh, Know my whereabouts. Oh, girl, girl, How many ships stop in the port of Malaga! From Sevilla to Garmona, I couldn't find a pocket knife, to cut off half the moon, Ming Feng was also injured and flew away. Oh, baby, baby, Watch the waves take my horse! By the dead saltworks, Lover, I forget you, Let those who want a heart, Come and ask me why I forgot. Oh, baby, baby,

Watch the waves take my horse! Cattis, don't come here, lest the sea cover you. Cervera, stand firm on your heels, Don't let the river wash you away. Ouch girl! Ouch boy! How flat is the fair path, How many ships are in the harbor and on the shore, how cold! Translated by Dai Wangshu
