Seemann (= Seaman)

Come in my boat
A storm is coming and night’s falling
Where do you want to go?
All alone you’re drifting away
Who holds your hand
When it’s pulling you under?

Where do you want to go?
So boundless, the cold sea
Come in my boat
The autumn wind holds the sails firm

Now you are standing by the lantern
With tears on your face
The daylight falls on the side
The autumn wind sweeps the streets clear

Now you are standing by the lantern
Having tears on your face
The evening light chases away the shadows
Time stands still and autumn comes

Come in my boat
The yearning becomes the helmsman
Come in my boat
The best seaman was I, after all

Now you are standing by the lantern
Having tears on your face
You get the flame from the candle
Time stands still and autumn comes

They only spoke of your mother
So merciless is only the night
In the end I’m left alone
Time stands still
And I am cold

Cold...

Cold...
