a cold sea, a frozen sea. | |||
The time of change, | |||
Two lovers flew with birds, | |||

There is wandering on the earth - a dream, | |||
There is singing without purpose, | |||
There is singing like murder, | |||
Two lovers fly with songbirds, | |||
The raging and changing sea, | |||
The freezing sea, the icy sea, | |||
Two seasons of change, | |||
Two lovers fly with songbirds, | |||
The great ocean was in silence, | |||
The great ocean saw what was hidden. | |||
