I've set my eyes on the sea

Looking at the distant horizon

I don't know why does this come to me

But I have to find the reason

Dawn is now clearly visible

I have to set sail immediately

For the weather is not admirable

Hope I can manage it perfectly.

off I go, here and there

Until I lost sight of the land

My heart froze as I breathe the air

And my mind trembles before my hand

I've faced tempest of distress

Thousands of them, I think

While my soul is hungry and depress

With nothing to eat, nothing to drink

I've been sailing very long

like no sailors can do

I've tried to sing a song

To help my heart get through

But no word rhymes

just like when I'm on shore

I'm always chasing times

And love is what I'm looking for.

But this voyage seemed endless

And I'm just an old and weary sailor

Looking for the beauty of a lost empress

Though I know she's with her emperor.

It stabs my heart like a knife

Now, it won't even beat

I maybe the sailor of my life

But not the wind that blows it.
