Translation

Sailor, my love

I feel jealous
Of the green waves of the sea
That insistently try to kiss
your body, as you stand before the tides.
I feel jealous
Of the wind that betrays me
Kissing you as you stand in the bow,
And runs away through the deck.
I feel jealous
Of the light of the full moon
That curls up around your body
In order to dance with you
I feel jealous
Of the waves that rise along your way
and of the mermaids that sing
That sing to charm you
Oh sailor, my love
Oh lord of my desires
Don't let the moon at night
Steal the color from your hair
Don't look at the stars
Because they would steal
The green of your eyes
These eyes color of the sea.

I can't stop the tears as I read Algebra's poetic words and listen to this beautiful artist. I'm stunned!!!

She's quite young but a super fadista. I had her first album, amazing :)

And besides, Portuguese is just this, beauty and poetry. I'm really really proud of it :)

Translation is good but I would have modulated the English a little to match the feeling of the song.
