A sailor on the sea one day was longing for home
He dreamed of the ocean and the land beyond the ocean
There he stands amongst the trees looking at the sky
And the bird and the girl and the sun has dried away his tears

It's madness or loneliness
May the sailor meet the siren

A sailor on the sea one night was longing for home

There he stands amongst the trees looking at the sky
And the bird and the girl and the wind has wiped away his tears

It's madness or loneliness
May the sailor meet the siren
