Letra 'Sir Patrick Spens' de 'Fairport Convention' traducida al español

The king sits in dunfirmline town,
drinking of the blood-red wine
andquot;where can i get a steely skipper
to sail this might boat of mine?andquot;
Then up there spoke a bonny boy,
sitting at the kingand's right knee
andquot;sir patrick spens is the very best seaman
that ever sailed upon the seaandquot;
The king has written a broad letter
and sealed it up with his own right hand
sending word unto sir patrick
to come to him at his command
andquot;an enemy then this must be
who told the lie concerning me
for i was never a very good seaman,
nor ever do intend to beandquot;
andquot;last night i saw the new moon clear
with the new moon in her hair
and that is a sign since we were born
that means thereand'll be a deadly stormandquot;
They had not sailed upon the deep a day,
a day but barely free
when loud and boisterous blew the winds
and loud and noisy blew the sea
Then up there came a mermaiden,
a comb and glass all in her hand
andquot;hereand's to you my merry young men for
youand'll not see dry land againandquot;
andquot;long may my lady stand
qith a lantern in her hand
before she sees my bonny ship
come sailing homeward to dry landandquot;
Forty miles off aberdeen,
the waters fifty fathoms deep
there lies good sir patrick spens
with the scots lords at his feet
