Mi ship has sails that are made of silk
The decks are trimmed with gold
And of jam and spice
there´s a paradise in the hold.

My ship´s aglow,
with a millón pearls
and rubies fill each bin
the sun sits high in a sapphire sky
when my ship comes in.

I can wait the years till it appears
One fine day one spring
But the pearls and such
they won´t mean much
If there´s missing just one thing

Y do not care if that day arrives
The dream need never be
If the ship I sing
doesn´t also bring
Own true love to me
