Land in Sicht [English translation]

The horizon is black and it rains hard

(I) am totally alone in the open ocean

No compass on board and

There is no one on land that is looking for me

Mountainous waves tower over me

My boat is far too weak, the rudder is breaking

And an icy-cold undertow pulls me in the flood

Between the surges: your face

Filled with fear and lost, exactly like me

Tell me, what is it, that happened

There is still hope

Refrain:

We're alive! Hold on tightly to me

Don't give up until the end

We're alive! However the storm roars

I won't let you go!

We're alive! We will survive

We won't go under, in these terrible seas

We're alive! Can you see the light?

There is land in sight!

Just a little more, take my hand

A soul-quake, never heard of

No longer alone, I want to be an anchor

I'll hold you until the storm lets up

Our limbs are already numb from cold

Salt burns itself into our skins

But we have each other

Refrain:

We're alive! Hold on tightly to me

Don't give up until the end

We're alive! However the storm roars

I won't let you go!

We're alive! We will survive

We won't go under, in these terrible seas

We're alive! Can you see the light?

There is land in sight!

There! Ahead! A ship approaches

With our last strength, we wave and scream

But it passes us by

Refrain:

We're alive! Hold on tightly to me

Don't give up until the end

We're alive! However the storm roars

I won't let you go!

We're alive! We will survive

We won't go under, in these terrible seas

We're alive! Can you see the light?

We're alive! Can you feel it, like I can

Our hearts raise themselves to the light

We're alive! Striving for the heavens

Redeemed from pain

We're alive! Weightless and freed from all fears

We're alive forever, you and I

Do you see the light? Do you see the light?
