Marinaro in guardia sta! In guardia sto. Gia' la notte più s'imbruna, Gia' il buon vento si cangio'. Mugghe l'onda: In gran fortuna presto il mar si levera'. Marinaro in guardia sta. In guardia sto. Oh! Attento sta, Tira, allenta. A poppa, a prora, Via la vela, Ancora ancora' Gia' di bordo si volto'. Dove andrem? Chi sa? Marinaro in guardia sta. In guardia sto. Romba il tuono Il vento sibila, La saetta gia' striscio'. Si fa, l'acqua. Dove? La'. Su, coraggio, io vincero'. Marinaro in guardia sta. In guardia sto. Nel furor della fortuna Mai timor mi prendera', L'angiol mio dalla laguna Ho gia' fede che prego'. Marinaro in guardia sta. In guardia sto. Ecco il ciel si fa sereno, Spunta il sol nel suo splendor, Guido' a noi l'arcobaleno La preghiera dell'amor. Sceso a spiaggia, la mia bella Mille volte vo'baciar, Sara' ognor a vera stella Del suo fido marinar A riva, a riva, Viva il mar.

Mariner està de guàrdia! De guàrdia estic, La nit s'enfosqueix més, El bon vent ha canviat. Rugeix l'onada: Si tenim sort de seguida el mar s'aixecarà. Mariner està de guàrdia, De guàrdia estic, Oh! Està atent, Caça, amolla, A popa, a proa, A navegar, encara, encara Ja a bord d'una vegada. On anirem? Qui sap? Mariner està de guàrdia, De guàrdia estic. Rugeix el tro Xiula el vent, La fletxa ha lliscat. Fa aigua. On? Allà. Vinga, ànim, jo venceré. Mariner està de guàrdia, De guàrdia estic. En el furor de la fortuna Mai la por em prendrà, El meu àngel de les aigües Té la meva fe i la meva pregaria. Mariner està de guàrdia, De guàrdia estic. Aquí el cel s'asserena, Apareix el sol en la seva esplendor, Ens ha guiat l'arc de Sant Martí, L'oració de l'amor. Vine a la platja, la meva bella Mil vegades et vull besar Serà eternament la veritable estrella Dels seus fidels mariners A la riba, a la riba, Visca el mar.
