My sweet old sea
My sweet old sea,
why to you
bleed for thee?
I will not give my love to you
and you should not be angry
with me,
for you are so cold, my sweet sea.
Why you long so bad for thee?
Your
waves show deep sympathy
so please, my sweet sea -
don't take my love from
me.
I must pray now
for my hands are cold
for he is leaving me.
Before
that, tell me my sweet sea,
to you really want to take him away from me?
Oh,
ocean wide,
do not be so unkind!
You should hear how my heart aches.
you
should see how my mind breaks,
when the gone one never wakes.
Oh, old
sea ---
do not take my life from me.
