Out of the rolling ocean, the crowd
Out of the rolling ocean, the crowd
Came a drop gently to me
Whispering, I love you
Before long I die
I have travelled a long way
Merely to look on you to touch you
For I could not die till I once looked on you
For I feared I might afterward lose you
Now we have met
We have looked
We are safe
Return in peace to the ocean my love
I too am part of that ocean, my love
We are not so much separated
Behold the great rondure
The cohesion of all
How perfect
But as for me
For you
The irresistible sea is to separate us
As for an hour carrying us diverse
Yet cannot carry us diverse forever
Be not impatient
A little space
Know you
I salute the air
The ocean and the land
Every day at sundown
For your dear sake
My love
