Translation

Al mar eche un poema

To the sea, I cast a poem

Que llevo con el mis preguntas y mi voz

Carrying with it my questions and my voice

Como un lento barco se perdio en la espuma

Like a slow boat, it got lost in the foam

Le pedi que no diera la vuelta

I asked it not to turn back

Sin haber visto el altamar

Without having seen the open sea

Y en suenos hablar conmigo de lo que vio

And in dreams, speak with me about what it saw

Aun si no volviera

Even if it never returned

Yo sabria si llego

I would know if it arrived

Viajar la vida entera

To travel the entire life

Por la calma azul en tormentas zozobrar

Through the calm blue, in storms to founder

Poco importa el modo si algun puerto espera

It matters little the way if some port awaits

Aguarde tanto tiempo el mensaje

I waited so long for the message

Que olvide volver al mar

That I forgot to return to the sea

Y asi yo perdi aquel poema

And so, I lost that poem

Grite a los cielos todo mi rencor

I screamed to the heavens all my resentment

Lo halle por fin pero escrito en la arena

I found it at last, but written in the sand

Como un oracion

Like a prayer

El mar golpeo in mis venas

The sea struck in my veins

Y libro mi corazon.

And freed my heart
