Oh, cruel storm Cruel sailor, cruel land They take what they'd sooner sell To some foreign land From my highest tower I see just how he stands and sways Whispered my lie There is a happy land For the weary maid Oh, splendid lady Steals time with your heels I watched your eyes fill with delights As your hounds take the wild fox down You're wicked, ugly [?] placed at your side The black thorns might be smarter But then they might be free Like darkness once more Like my sailor's home again With a vaguely cruel or kind As light bleeds from the sky I watch your heart die Cry moonbeams with my time Pass, true loves, by once more And it will be splendid
