Seemann [English translation]

Come into my boat

A storm rises and night falls

Where will you go?

All alone you drift from there

Who holds your hand

when you're dragged down below?

Where will you go?

The cold sea is without a shore

Come into my boat

The autumn wind keeps the sails full

Now you stand there at the lantern

With tears on your face

The daylight fades from the place

The autumn wind sweeps the empty streets

Now you stand there at the lantern

With tears on your face

The evening light chases the shadows away

Time stands still and autumn comes

Come into my boat

Nostalgia is the helmsman

Come into my boat

I still were the best sailor

Now you stand there at the lantern

With tears on your face

You take the flame from the candle

Time stands still and autumn comes

They only spoke of your mother

So merciless is only the night

At the end I will still be alone

Time stands still and I am cold
