English

Through Concordia the Bros. set sail
Together they adventure without fail
From jungles to deserts and plenty more
They'll connect the islands, shore to shore

Yo ho, bro-oh
Sail across the mighty seas
Yo ho, bro-oh
With Mario and Luigi

Connie here will gladly assist
She's a kind and budding Wattanist
Snoutlet has joined them on this gig
Who's definitely (maybe?) not a pig

Yo ho, bro-oh
Look at all the friends they'll meet
Yo ho, bro-oh
Mario and Lui—geez!

The baddies are here! What will they do?
Jump or hammer or a dodge or two?
Or special attacks that can wallop foes?
What's gonna happen? Get 'em Bros.!

Mario and Luigi, brave and strong
Nothing can break their brotherly bond
And with their crew, the Bros. are set
It's a voyage that's all-hands-on-deck!

Yo ho, bro-oh
They'll reconnect these distant lands
Yo ho, bro-oh
And the journey will be grand

Yo ho, bro-oh
Sail across the mighty seas
Yo ho, bro-oh
Mario and Luigi

Translation

Per l'Elettria i fratelli navigeranno Senza timore all'avventura andranno. Giungle, deserti e in mezzo al mar Tante isole da collegar. Yo ho, bro-oh... Sul vasto mare navighiam Yo ho, bro-oh... Mario e Luigi siam! Condina è qui e senz'altro ci aiuterà Da prode elettriniera una mano ci darà. Anche Presus è qui, e meno male... Occhio, però, che non è un maiale! Yo ho, bro-oh... Quanti amici da qui a lì Yo ho, bro-oh... Siam Mario e Lui-giii?! Arrivano i cattivi! Ora come si fa? Un salto, un martello, schiva di qua e di là! L'attacco speciale è un metodo spiccio Per tirare i fratelli fuori d'impiccio! Mario e Luigi son forti già si sa, Uniti da un legame che non si scioglierà. I fratelli però da soli non saranno Tutti i loro amici, assiem li aiuteranno! Yo ho, bro-oh... Isole lontane collegheremo Yo ho, bro-oh... Quante grandi avventure vivremo! Yo ho, bro-oh... Sul vasto mare navighiam Yo ho, bro-oh... Mario e Luigi siam!

Los hermanos van a recorrer Concordia,
Donde vivirán una aventura tras otra.
Jungla, desierto, variados paisajes...
Conectarán todas las islas por las que pasen.

Yo ho, bro-oh...
¡Un viaje por mares sin fin!
Yo ho, bro-oh...
¡Con Mario y Luigi!

Conetta siempre está dispuesta a ayudar;
Ansía convertirse en una voltanista sin par.
Porcopolo también se une al viaje...
¡Que le llamen "cerdo" le parece un ultraje!

Yo ho, bro-oh...
¡Harán amigos por doquier!
Yo ho, bro-oh...
Mario y Lui... ¿¡quéee?!

¡Han llegado los malos! Que no cunda el pánico.
Saltos, martillos o bloqueos raudos...
¡Un ataque especial quizá los deje anonadados!
Pase lo que pase, ¡no os rindáis, hermanos!

Mario y Luigi, la definición de valor;
Nada puede quebrar el vínculo entre estos dos.
La tripulación se ha reunido y está lista ya.
¡Todos a cubierta! ¡Vamos a zarpar!

Yo ho, bro-oh...
Volverán a conectar estas tierras lejanas.
Yo ho, bro-oh...
¡Vivirán una aventura genial!

Yo ho, bro-oh...
¡Un viaje por mares sin fin!
Yo ho, bro-oh...
¡Con Mario y Luigi!
