The Sea

This is a less literal and more poetic translation of the song, but even doing it less 'word for word' it still doesn't make a huge amount of sense! Lol
 
The sea
That we see dance along the clear gulfs
Has reflections of silver
The sea
Those reflections change
In the rain
 
The sea
In summer skies merges
Her white sheep
With angels pure
The sea
An azure shepherdess
Infinite
 
Look
Next to lagoons
Those great wet reeds
Look
Those white birds
And those rusty houses
 
The sea
They're all lulled
Along the clear gulfs
And like a song of love
The sea
Has rocked my heart for life
