I'm a sailor gone astray, since I was a child,
I have never left the sea, she's my only wife,
forty years have passed by now, I've forgotten all about the Earth,
but my ship is falling apart, I must return to the port.
I have forgotten, their language and my name,
since my ancestors were fish, I'm like a sailor stranded in the
desert.
I'm going to die here and there won't even be any fish to eat my
body.
I'm a sailor gone astray, since I was a child,
I have never left the sea, she's my only wife,
forty years have passed by now, I've forgotten all about the Earth,
but my ship is falling apart, I must return to the port.
Mother ocean, come and get me,
sink these last remnants which are ship and body,
I want to throw myself, into your waves,
and die in your arms.
