I dream of a foreign land Far beyond the sea – beyond the world known to us The call of freedom and wealth – I need to embark! And travel to find new air that I can breathe A new home till the end of days.
Lo! A beauty of utmost brilliance Lo! A sign of craftsman perfection Lo! A home for the untamed sea Lo! A bridge be thou to me
Our shores lie astern and the sea before us. I don’t weep, but sadness still prevails I leave a world of death and oppression A new hope – a sail to set us free
Lo! A world of utmost brilliance Lo! A sign of divine perfection Lo! A home for a new planted seed Lo! A home be thou to me
With thunder, darkness and lightning strikes He makes the peaceful waves dreadful spikes No peace at sea, no peace at land Shall we meet our doom from our maker’s hand?
Donnerschlag auf Donnerschlag. Das Schiff es weint, krächzt und ächzt. Geschlagen von der Macht der See mag es niemals untergehn.
The roaring waves, the roaring thunder when the heavens, oh god, they burst asunder. But I dream on – (I) dream of the land of wonder. Of richness unseen I take from yonder. I dream on, I dream on.
Brechender Balken und schreiender Mensch Der Traum vom Aufbruch zerdrückt? Meeresberge fordern unseren Willen Doch die Kraft des Selbst ist nicht zu stillen.
The roaring waves, the roaring thunder when the heavens, oh god, they burst asunder. But I dream on – I dream of the land of wonder. Of richness unseen I take from yonder. I dream on, I dream on.
The sound of birds caresses my ear And then the horizons end. And then the horizons end! The sea grows shallow We have touched soil. The soil of a new world. The soil of a new world!
Lo! These beautiful shores Lo! Mountains and forests of awe Lo! New lands of untamed richness Lo! Lands of new destiny
We set foot on these lands, these lands beyond the sea These lands beyond the sea – a new home in our newfound dream A dream that is destined to last for all eternity Until the end of days – to mark the end of tyranny Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa. |
