| Es vakaros skatos mākoņu burās
| I look at the sails of the clouds in the evenings
|
| Kas Salacai pāri nerimstas skriet
| Who does not stop running across Salaca
|
| Mans sapnis ir jūra, vētrainā jūra
| My dream is the sea, the stormy sea
|
| Kur latviešu zēni diendienā iet
| Where do Latvian boys go on a daily basis
|
| Tur dosies mans kuģis kā Neibāde stalts
| My ship will go there like Neibade stately
|
| Vai okeāns mierīgs vai dusmīgi balts
| Is the ocean calm or angry white
|
| Vai ziemelis pūtīs vai negaisu cels
| Will the north blow or will the storm rise
|
| Ar baltajām krūtīm tas ūdeņus šķels
| With its white breast, it will part the waters
|
| Ar baltajām krūtīm tas ūdeņus šķels
| With its white breast, it will part the waters
|
| Es domās jau redzu tāltālus krastus
| I can already see distant shores in my mind
|
| Tur putekļos ostas reklāmas zib
| There, in the dust, the advertising flash of the port
|
| Žvadz enkuru ķēdes, kaijas kliedz mastos
| Anchor chains rattle, seagulls scream in the masts
|
| Skan jūrnieku dziesmas, muliņi rib
| Sailors' songs are playing, mulini rib
|
| Tur dosies mans kuģis kā Neibāde stalts
| My ship will go there like Neibade stately
|
| Vai okeāns mierīgs vai dusmīgi balts
| Is the ocean calm or angry white
|
| Vai ziemelis pūtīs vai negaisu cels
| Will the north blow or will the storm rise
|
| Ar baltajām krūtīm tas ūdeņus šķels
| With its white breast, it will part the waters
|
| Ar baltajām krūtīm tas ūdeņus šķels
| With its white breast, it will part the waters
|
| Uz Gambiju, Kongo, Kubu, Tobago
| To Gambia, Congo, Cuba, Tobago
|
| Pie Indijas tempļiem, zeltā kas spīd
| At the temples of India, in gold that shines
|
| Pa sentēvu pēdām ūdeņus vagot
| In the footsteps of our ancestors, plowing the waters
|
| Iet latvieši jūrā šodien un rīt
| Latvians go to sea today and tomorrow
|
| Tur dosies mans kuģis kā Neibāde stalts
| My ship will go there like Neibade stately
|
| Vai okeāns mierīgs vai dusmīgi balts
| Is the ocean calm or angry white
|
| Vai ziemelis pūtīs vai negaisu cels
| Will the north blow or will the storm rise
|
| Ar baltajām krūtīm tas ūdeņus šķels
| With its white breast, it will part the waters
|
| Ar baltajām krūtīm tas ūdeņus šķels
| With its white breast, it will part the waters
|
