The vast fickleness
of the sea slows down the winds --
makes them wrench themselves.
De grillige zee	Das launische Meer
remt de vaart der winden af --	verlangsamt die Winde, zwingt --
laat hen zich wringen.	sie, sich zu wringen.

When the waves rejoice
I hear mermaids singing, blown --
about in the wind.
Als de zee jubelt	Wenn das Meer jubelt,
hoor ik meerminnen zingen --	singen die Meerjungfrauen --
verwaaid in de wind.	in Winden verweht.
