Morriñas [English translation]

Ocean winds,

nostalgia and longing for you,

one song, one melancholy.

Far away from you

they dream that the day comes

when they will return to their beloved land.

They say that they cry for you,

those who left one day

in search of different lands,

in search of a different life.

They say that no one has ever cried

so much with tears of joy,

they say, than those who

returned to Galicia.

They dream about you,

they live recalling

those places

where they were young.

They talk about you,

they want to stop the time

and their singing

turns into a muñeira and a poem.

They say that they cry for you,

those who left one day

in search of different lands,

in search of a different life.

They say that no one has ever cried

so much with tears of joy,

they say, than those who

returned to Galicia.
