Rainer Maria Rilke
Song of the Sea
Timeless sea breezes sea wind of the night
You come for no one if someone should wake
He must be prepared how to survive you

Timeless sea breezes that for reasons have
Blown ancient rocks you are purest space
Coming from afar

Oh how a fruit-bearing fig tree
Feels your coming high up in the moonlight

Timeless sea breezes sea wind of the night
You come for no one if someone should wake
He must be prepared how to survive you

Timeless sea breezes that for reasons have
Blown ancient rocks you are purest space
Coming from afar

Oh how a fruit-bearing fig tree
Feels your coming high up in the moonlight

Timeless sea breezes sea wind of the night
You come for no one if someone should wake
He must be prepared how to survive you
Timeless sea breezes that for reasons have
Blown ancient rocks you are purest space
Coming from afar

Oh how a fruit-bearing fig tree
Feels your coming high up in the moonlight

He must be prepared
How to survive you
Song of the sea
