Romeiro ao lonxe

Romeiro hei de ir lonxe ao San Andréscon herbiñas de namorar,dareille a quen alén mar estáo aloumiño do meu amor.

Hei de vestir a camisa de liño(que ela teceu para min)con herbiñas de namorar;(anda o lagarto azul e souril)a acaroar mapoulas bermellas,(nacidas de fusís,)co aloumiño do meu amor,(alleo á guerra e ao seu tambor.)Morto ou vivo hei volver á terra(que ela andou canda min)con herbiñas de namorar;(chouta o mascato polo cantil)a vela-lo adro familiar,(alá lonxe, na fin,)co aloumiño do meu amor.

Cabo do mundo, ó pé dun aguillón(dóeme a guerra ruín)entre herbiñas de namorar;(corvo mariño voa xentil)o amilladoiro a levantar(e pan santo a colorir)co aloumiño do meu amor.

Romeiro hei de ir lonxe ao San Andrescon herbiñas de namorar,dareille a quen alén mar estáo aloumiño do meu amor.

Pilgrim in the distance

I'm going far away on pilgrimage to San Andrés,1with small herbs to win her heart2,I'll give to the one beyond the seamy loving caress.

I'll wear the linen shirt(that she knitted for me)with small herbs to win her heart;(the lively, blue lizard is)moving scarlet poppies closer,([poppies] born of rifles,)with my loving caress,([that's] alien to war and its drums)Dead or alive I'll return to earth(as she walked with me)with small herbs to win her heart;(the gannet's springing around the cliff)to watch over the family churchyard,(over there, at the edge)with my loving caress.

The end of the world3 at the foot of a stinger(the vile war hurts me)among small herbs to win her heart(a cormorant flies graciously)the amilladoiro4 yet to be lifted(and the holy bread yet to colour)with my loving caress.

I'm going far away on pilgrimage to San Andrés,with small herbs to win her heart,I'll give to the one beyond the seamy loving caress.
