Lyrics:
I know not why, but I know she's a she,
Eternal woman, wind rose without leaf.
To ships and men she listens when they speak,
And rules her choir the old voices of the sea.

Desde Valpo hasta Cádiz hermana,
a nuestra Rosa canto yo,
Por soleá bajo la luna, hermana,
Por alegrías con el sol.

In the milky moonlight
Buoyed that boat on the water and waves.
I stood on the shingle
And waited for day,
As she fell from the cliffs
And sang deep in the caves,
Her lonely hymn.
To cirrus skies
The lighthouse cried
Farewell, goodbye,
With night unwritten yet.

Desde Valpo hasta Cádiz hermana,
a nuestra Rosa canto yo,
Por soleá bajo la luna, hermana,
Por alegrías con el sol.

I dreamed alone of her,
And climbed aboard,
With the island poets
For rumoured shores,
And saw the bell towers
Fold and fade to nothing.

But the spinnaker sighed at
Her stubborn will,
Her storm-like mind,
Fathoms deep and dark as
Vaults of the sea,
I saw them cast a rose out
to the breeze.

As the wind moves the water,
in the chalice of a rose.
