Ein Schiff wird kommen [English translation]

I am a girl from Piraeus

And I love the harbour, the ships and the sea

I love the laughter of sailors

And kisses that taste like sea, like salt and tar

I'm attracted by the magic of Piraeus

So I stand evening after evening here on the quay

And wait for the foreign ships

From Hong Kong, Java, Chile and Shangai

A ship will come, it will bring me the one

Whom I love like nobody else, and who makes me happy

A ship will come and make my dream come true

And silence my longing, the longing of many nights

I am a girl from Piraeus

And if one day my heart will fade away

Then it must be one of the harbour

Only that way I wish a person for life

And then my children will stand

Then, evening after evening, just like me, on the quay

And they'll wait for the foreign ships

From Hong Kong, Java, Chile and Shangai

A ship will come, it will bring me the one

Whom I love like nobody else, and who makes me happy

A ship will come and make my dream come true

And silence my longing, the longing of many nights
