Wie ein Pfeil fliegt er hin ohne Ziel ohne Rast ohne Ruh! Heigho! ho! heigho! ho! heigho! ho! There sails a ship o’er the deep main, With blacken’d mast and crimson’d sail, On deck you see the man of pain, His eyes so dark, his face so pale. Huzza! Listen the wind! Heigho! Heigho! heigho! ho! Huzza! See the sails spread! Heigho! heigho! Huzza! She leaps and leaps, from wave forever, evermore!
He pipes! What! captain, hast thou returned? Hui! Spread the sails! And thy bride, say, where is she? Hui! Off to sea! As of old, No good fortune for thee! Ha-ha-ha! Blow, thou storm wind, howl and blow! What care we how fast we go? We have sails from Satan’s store, Sails that last for evermore ho-hoe! Welcher Sang! Ist es Spuk? Wie mich’s graut! Stimmet an unser Lied! Singet laut!
Around a cape he once would sail, And thus it was that he did hail: “I’ll sail, I’ll sail, I’ll sail evermore!” Huzza! Satan, he heard him hail! ho! heigho! Huzza! Satan took him by his word! ho! heigh! Huzza! And damned he! His ship, she leaps from wave to wave forever, evermore! Doch, dass der arme Mann noch Erlösung fände auf Erden, Zeigt’ Gottes Engel an, wie sein Heil ihm einst könne werden!
