Holt die Seeleute heim [English translation]

Bring the sailors home

Bring the merchants home

They're chanting this tune

And I'm joining in now

There is war yet again

Come bring the sailors home

[Chorus 1:]

Bring the sailors home

Bring the merchants home

Bring the whole fleet back home

May no one be sailing alone

Do you dare to look into the future?

Do you want to see what's coming for you?

Then go open your eyes and see

What's gathering in the distance

The storm after never stayed out

Call the men back from the oceans

Come flood, step on your house's roof

But otherwise you'd better not go out

No matter what happens, my child

Don't stray from my side now, child

Soon we'll feel the icy winds

But we'll also hear an air of harps

[Chorus 1]

And the creatures of the sea

Are like the creatures that I always see

The flesh that they're devouring

Oh, they're jerking and gulfing it vulgarly

We've got murderers who're still pubescent here

Yet someone had to hand them a gun anyhow

[Chorus 2:]

Call the sailors home

Call the merchants home

Call the diplomats home

And no one be sailing alone
