Look, it's the vast sea,
You see a point in the distance,
Look, it's the boundless sky,
To which your glance is chained.
Look, the point came close to you,
You see, it's a ship,
And the endless sky is there.
What do you see in the heights ?
It's a mirage, it came to life in the distance.
Look, the boundless sea is
Carrying the ship,
Look, in the cloudless sky
The flying frigate is sailing.
Look, in the open sea
The damned ship disappeared,
And there in the sky before dawn
A leaden ark had sailed by you.
Stop, stop, you, exhausted swan.
This is my past,
These are my abandoned ideals.
I admire them from aside,
Inside of me.
Because they are chasing me,
But they cannot hurt me,
Since I'm their team.
