Inte kan jag utan gr\u00e5t
\nse ut \u00f6ver havet
\nsedan mina v\u00e4nner
\nsj\u00f6nk i djupet.
\nVidrigt \u00e4r mig det svarta hav
\noch den sugande b\u00f6lja,

\nv\u00e5llar mig sorg.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

No I cannot without weeping
\nGaze across the sea
\nSince my friends
\nSank to the depths.
\nHow I detest that black sea
\nand the pull of the crest,
\nthose prey to the waves
\ncause me grief.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
