     Por mor de certa rabuxa
     pelengrinei por Europa
     marexaba vento en popa

     xa lle vin o rabo á cruxa,
     ando feito un sapo cuncho
     volvome ao patrio corruncho

     Because of certain rage
     I pilgrimaged along Europe
     I was sailing with tailwind
     but I said to myself, geez!

     and I'm look like a tortoise
     I'm getting back to my native corner
