Michel Cleis - La Mezclava subiendo la corriente

Michel Cleis - The mixture rising with the current

con chinchorro y atarraya,

with a net and casting net,

la canoa del bareque

the barge's canoe

para llegar a la playa (x2)

to reach the beach. (x2)

(el pescador) habla con la luna,

(the fisherman) talks to the moon,

(el pescador) habla con la playa,

(the fisherman) talks to the beach,

(el pescador) no tiene fortuna,

(the fisherman) has no fortune,

sólo su atarraya. (x2)

only his casting net. (x2)

regresan los pescadores

the fishermen return

con su carga pa' vender,

with their load to sell,

al puerto de sus amores

to the port of their loves

donde tienen su querer

where they have their longing.

va subiendo la corriente

con chinchorro y atarraya,

with a net and casting net,

la canoa del bareque

the barge's canoe

para llegar a la playa.

to reach the beach.

(el pescador) habla con la luna,

(el pescador) habla con la playa,
