Der Alte und das Meer [English translation]

You've gone out far

And you cal feel: your strength is waning

On the sea for days now

Say, how long can you keep yourself awake?

Well fastened by your side

Is the booty of your journey

But no wind is blowing

That could carry your boat

home

Say, old man

How should your journey continue?

Only infinity

Accompanies you

Say, old man, where to

The oars are heavy

As far as the eye can see

Only the old man and the sea

They're circling around you

Only the sea, there's no escape

The enemies are lurking everywhere

All hope, it is gone

Your efforts are in vain

And the shadows are rising up

There's no wind

And oh, so far is your home

Say, old man

How should your journey continue?

Only infinity

Accompanies you

Say, old man, where to

The oars are heavy

As far as the eye can see

Only the old man and the sea

When the night sets you free again

The saving home is near

But as you reach the beach

There's nothing left of the booty

And so you drag yourself home

On your back the heavy mast

Where is the reward

For taking this effort onto yourself

Say, old man

How should your journey continue?

Only infinity

Accompanies you

Say, old man, where to

The oars are heavy

As far as the eye can see

Only the old man and the sea

Say, old man

How should your journey continue?

Only infinity

Accompanies you

Say, old man, where to

The oars are heavy

As far as the eye can see

Only the old man and the sea

As far as the eye can see

Only the old man and the sea
