Oh, dark blue water, high-flowing water,
Where do you want to go on your way?
I’ll follow your waves into the world,
I will not come back to my old home.
I’ll follow your waves into the world,
I will not come back to my old home.

And so I travelled all over Europe,
To Greece and Iceland, and Frenchmen’s land.
I met good people, saw many wonders,
But still I dream about my home.
I met good people, saw many wonders,
But still I dream about my home.

Oh, dark blue water, high-flowing water,
Where do you want to go on your way?
I’ll follow your waves into the world,
I will not come back to my old home.
I’ll follow your waves into the world,
I will not come back to my old home.
