Levántate, hombre flojo,

Get up, lazy man,

salí a pescar, salí a pescar,

I went out to fish, I went out to fish,

que la mar está linda

pa' navegar, pa' navegar.

for sailing, for sailing.

No puedo levantarme,

I can't get up,

tengo mucha hambre

y el pescar con fatiga

and fishing with fatigue

va a malograrme.

will ruin me.

Quiero comer curanto

con chapalele,

milcao, chicha 'e manzana

y aunque me vuele.

Los botes ya salieron

The boats have already left

de la ensenada, de la ensenada,

from the cove, from the cove,

y vos 'tai en la cama

and you're in bed

sin hacer nada, sin hacer nada.

doing nothing, doing nothing.

Es que he comido mucho

It's because I've eaten a lot

por lo derecho

y es malo hacer esfuerzo

and it's bad to make an effort

tan satisfecho.

when so satisfied.
