Here you lay, the Son of Honour.
The couraged warrior of the truth;
Last minutes pass – there is just one more
Soon the Sea will take your youth.
I’m sitting near you – my heart is torn
And tears are flooding my sad white face,
Your eyes are dying – forgetting my warm
Friendship, and gazing into space.
Death is coming – I hear her breathing
I’m trying harder to hold you back,
You’re smiling – it seems you’re willing
To cheer me up, lying on cold deck.
Your lips get bluish and you are dying
Leaving me in this lonely night.
You leave forever - I won’t be crying
I know, I’ll meet you in heavens light.
So he died, lieutenant… and friend,
The sea now has him and I do not
The angel of God, killed by man…
But I’m still alive and blood is hot
I will take revenge – and I’ll love you
And I’ll remember your sweetest youth…
