Seemann [English translation]

She stood on the shore, young and pretty,

her eyes widening, her cheeks blushing.

And she wanted to tag along with the ships

to the long dreamed land.

And as she walked through the meadow,

a man came, his hair flowing in the wind.

He built her a bed on the gras

and asked for her hand in marriage.

Tia, tia faderaderej!

And asked for her hand in marriage!

Tia, tia faderaderej!

And asked for her hand in marriage!

Thus they laid in this night

on leaves and flowerage.

Only the moon saw what happened there

and heard their vow.

And in the morning as the day dawned,

a breeze came from the sea, so cold.

The beautiful maiden's blush

it blew away.

Tia, tia faderaderej!

It blew it away!

Tia, tia faderaderej!

It blew it away!

As she looked for his warmth

the bed of flowers was cold and empty.

And with wind in the sails his ship sailed

to the long dreamed land.

Tia, tia faderaderej!

To the long dreamed land!

Tia, tia faderaderej!

To the long dreamed land!

Tia, tia faderaderej!

To the long dreamed land!

Tia, tia faderaderej!

To the long dreamed land!

And thus she said, she cut her faerielike hair

and took the next ship on sea.

She haunted her sailor

in the long dreamed land.
