Auf Hoher See [English translation]

Probably in year 1360

The night was torn by a scream

In a small fishing village

A life passed and a new one arose

The room cold, the fire on

The child sees the world

Yet in the eyes, it flashes bright

To hear what I told

Prince of the seas, master of the seas

His name roaring on the waves

Who calls him becomes lost

And goes collect treasure in his ship

We're alone on the high seas

The sound of the waves urge us onward

We're alone on the high seas

With full sails on the course to freedom

Threatened with poverty, hunger, and death

A pitiful fisherman

So he goes for the first times on the sea

The heart invigorated, fear suppressed

He develops the plan, he wants revenge

To take the riches of others

Who henceforth speaks his name

Pays with his life
