Pilgrim Far Away

Romeiro Ao Lonxe

Pilgrim, I will go far to San AndresRomeiro, hei de ir lonxe ao San Andres
With herbs of loveCon herbiñas de namorar
I will give it to the one beyond the seaDareille a quen alén mar está
The light of my loveO aloumiño do meu amor

I will wear the linen shirtHei de vestir a camisa de liño
That she wove for meQue ela teceo para min
With herbs of loveCon herbiñas de namorar
The blue lizard and the mouse walkAnda o lagarto azul e souril
To caress red poppiesA acaroar mapoulas bermellas
Born from fusesNacidas de fusís
With the light of my loveCo aloumiño do meu amor
Away from war and its drumAlleo á guerra e ao seu tambor
Dead or alive I will return to the landMorto ou vivo hei volver á terra
That she walked with meQue ela andou canda min
With herbs of loveCon herbiñas de namorar
The cat jumps by the cliffChouta o mascato polo cantil
To watch over the family yardA vela-lo adro familiar
There far away, in the endAla lonxe, na fin
With the light of my loveCo aloumiño do meu amor

End of the world, at the foot of a cragCabo do mundo, ó pé dun aguillón
The ruinous war hurts meDoeme a guerra ruín
Among herbs of loveEntre herbiñas de namorar
The sea crow flies gentlyCorvo mariño voa xentil
To raise the millstoneO amilladoiro a levantar
And color the holy breadE pan santo a colorir
With the light of my loveCo aloumiño do meu amor

With herbs of loveCon herbiñas de namorar
I will give it to the one beyond the seaDareille a quen alén mar está
The light of my loveO aloumiño do meu amor
