Off I go, my love,
Into the faraway land,
Where the oceans meet the sky,
Where the land yields a golden harvest.

I will return home at morning’s dawn,
So, don’t wait up with the gloomy eyes,
I will sail across the seas and come back to you
With my arms wide open, longing for your warm embrace.

I will sail across the seven seas and  
bring you the finest treasures,
So just close your eyes and lay to rest.
I’ll find my way back to you through the thunder and storm,
Sailing through the roaring clouds and
tidal waves, longing for your warm, tender sighs.

I drift away into the lonely ocean,
With memories of your beautiful eyes,
Reminding me not to sail away too far,
But I drift afar in search of treasures and gold.

As I close my eyes for a moment
I see a glimpse of your beautiful face, smiling at me,
Reminding me not to drift away too far
For my home is where my heart lies.

As the storm surges, the oceans grow deep,
The rain pours  as thunder strikes the ocean,
But I sail forward, longing to reach home,
Navigating through the tides and storms, I sail towards you.

As the weather clears, I make my way back to you,
Bringing you the finest jewels and precious stones,
I have crossed the seven seas and the oceans so deep,
Sailing through rain and sunshine, I drift back to you.

Drifting through tidal waves and majestic oceans,
now I finally see a glimpse of you.
Standing tall and waiting for me with your arms wide open.
I have reached my home where my heart lies.
Now, I run towards you, with arms wide open,
finally wrapped in your warm, loving embrace.
