Auf der fernen See ein Segel steht,
Mein Schatz ist bei dem See;
Der Wind mir an die Beine weht,
Der Wind, der Wind an der See.

Blas ihn her zu mir, blas ihn her zu mir,
Du Wind, du Wind von der See;
Mein Herz ist tief, so wie das Meer
Und so stark wie der Wind auf der See.

Joseph Marx

Chant de l'amie du marin

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Marx)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Au loin il y a une voile,
Mon trésor est sur la mer ;
Le vent souffle sur mes jambes,
Le vent, le vent de la mer.

Souffle-le ici jusqu'à moi, souffle-le vite jusqu'à moi,
Vent, vent sur la mer ;
Mon cœur est aussi profond, aussi profond que la mer
Et aussi fort que le vent de la mer.
