Seemann, deine Heimat ist das Meer [English translation]

Sailor, let the dreaming,

Don't think about home.

Sailor, wind and waves

are drawing you out.

[Refrain:]

Your home is the sea,

your friends are the stars

over Rio and Shanghai, over Bali and Hawaii.

Your love is your ship.

Your longing is the distance.

And you are only loyal to them,

a life long.

Sailor, let the dreaming.

Don't think of me, sailor,

because the abroad is already waiting for you.

[Refrain:]
