Ты видел деву на скале,
В одежде белой, над волнами,
Когда, бушуя в бурной мгле.
Играло море с берегами,
Когда луч молний озарял
Её всечасно блеском алым,
И ветер бился и летал
С её летучим [покрывалом?]1
Прекрасно море в бурной мгле,
И небо [в блесках]2, без лазури;
Но верь мне: дева на скале
Прекрасней волн, небес и бури.

一个少女站在岩上，
身穿白衣服，海波在下
暴风雨中施展疯狂。
大海和海岸一起玩耍，
当那闪电照亮之时
她不断地闪耀着红光，
狂风抽打并且吹起
她的衣袂飞舞且飘扬！
雾锁大海多么美丽，
长天无蓝色，闪闪发光；
请你相信：岩上少女
美过天空、风暴和波浪。
