The water wave problem is studied, described by an Euler equation with free surface on which a surface tension is acting. Both compressible and incompressible cases are considered. The Lagrangian formulation is used and a local existence theorem is given. The new element is concerning the initial data which are rotational and with a lower regularity -- \(H^3\) in the interior -- compared with a previous result. Energy estimates are obtained. The main tool is the Cauchy invariance (which follows from the Weber formula) related with the conservation of the vorticity along the Lagrangian trajectories -- see [\textit{N. Besse} and \textit{U. Frisch}, J. Fluid Mech. 825, 412--478 (2017; Zbl 1374.76005)]. Some results published in [\textit{M. Ignatova} and \textit{I. Kukavica}, Asymptotic Anal. 100, No. 1--2, 63--86 (2016; Zbl 1356.35167)] are used.
