Quoted By:
with ten cannonry per band / smooth sailing, at full sail
doesn't cut the sea, rather flies / a brigantine sailboat
pirate ship that they call / for it's bravery, The Feared
known in all the sea / from one side to the other
the Moon in the sea shines / on the canvas the wind moans
and rises in soft movement / waves of silver and blue
and the pirate captain sees / happily singing in the stern
Asia in one side, Europe in the other/ and there in his front Istanbul
"sail, sailboat of mine / without fear
for no enemy ship / neither storm nor bonanza
your course to twist reaches / nor to hold your courage
twenty captures we have done / in spite of the English
and they have surrendered their banners / hundred nations to my feet
it is my boat my treasure
it is my god liberty
my law, the strength and the wind
my only homeland, the sea
there they stir fierce wars blind kings / for another span of land
while I claim for mine all what the wild sea cover
here nobody imposed laws
and there is no beach, whatever it is / nor flag of splendor
that don't feel my right / and breastfeed my courage
to the cry of "ship is coming!" it is to see how is turns and warns to flee at full speed
for I'm the king of the sea and my fury is to be feared
in the captures, I divide what is taken equally
for wealth I only want the unrivaled beauty
Sentenced I am to death! I laugh / may fortune not abandon me
and the very one who condemns me / I will hang from a yard / maybe in his own ship
and if I fall / what is life? I already gave it up for lost
when the yoke of the slave / like a brave, I shook
my best music are the Northern winds /the din and trembling of the shaken cables
from the black sea the bellows / and the roar of my cannons
and from the thunder to the sound of the wind /and the bellowing wind
I sleep sedated / lulled by the sea
it is my boat my treasure
it is my god liberty
my law, the strength and the wind
my only homeland, the sea"
