• Alang (For John)

I hail you, great ocean!
Oh tell me, will you be my brother?

I do not know your hidden destiny; everything about you interests me.
Tell me, then, if you are the abode of the Prince of Darkness.
Tell me if it is the breath of Satan that creates the tempests which whip your salt-water cloud-high.
You must tell me, for I would rejoice to know that hell is so near to man.

Your moral grandeur, image of infinity, you are more beautiful than the night.
Which the deeper, the more impenetrable of the two: the ocean or the human heart?

Old ocean, crystal-waved... Free-flowing tears well up in my eyes.
Thus, one last time, I want to hail you and bid you goodbye.

***

If i was a ship
I would be of much grace
And the wind in my sails
Would be my lover

If i was a ship
I would sail through the storm
To carry a bread
To the great starving lands

Inside my wide chest
They would carry the stones
To build their temples
For gods long forgotten

If i was a ship
I would fight for no king
Any flag on my mast
I would turn into black

If i was a ship
I would rather drown
To never end up
On the shore of Alang

To never end up
On the shore of Alang
I would rather drown
