Palaeoarchaean |
| Free man, you shall forever cherish the ocean! |
| The sea is your mirror; |
| you contemplate your soul |
| In its eternal waves that chafe and roll |
| Your mind’s abyss is bitter as the sea |
| Both of you live in darkness and in mystery |
| Man, who has ever plumbed the depths of your being? |
| O Sea, who knows your hidden riches |
| Seeing the secrets you preserve so jealously? |
| You love to plunge into your image down to the core |
| Embracing it with eyes and arms: your very heart |
| Sometimes finds a distraction from its urgent smart |
| In the wild ocean’s untamable roar |
| Both of you live in darkness and mystery |
| Man, who has ever plumbed the depths of your being? |
| O Sea, who knows your hidden riches |
| Seeing the secrets you preserve so jealously? |
| And yet for countless ages you have fought each other |
| With hands unsparing and with unforbearing breath |
| Each an eternal foe to his relentless brother |
| So avid are you both of slaughter and of death |
| Man and the sea |
| Man and the sea |
| Man and the sea |
| Man and the sea |
| Eternal wrestlers! |
| Man and Sea |
| Unrelenting twins! |
| Man and Sea — You have fought each other |
| Man and Sea — With unforbearing breath |
| Man and Sea — Eternal Wrestlers! |
| Man and Sea |
| Man and Sea — Each an eternal foe to his brother |
| Man and Sea — So avid are you both of fight and death |
