Meri [English translation]

They(?) think over these things in my mind

The water took away our boat

The wind spoke through the sails

They(?) think over these things in my mind

The sea drove my mind

The water swirled about as wave-crests

What should I thank the sea for

The sea has swallowed many men

It's borrowed many children

I don't love the coasts

The sea has taken my father

My only brother has gone to the waves

Why the waves in the sea

The waves, thoughts of my father

The water worth my brother

Why didn't they take me

They didn't borrow this child

Didn't drive it under the waves

I won't come to praise the sea

I don't love the coasts

I don't love these coasts
