O brother
Tied to that saline grace of
A noble but fragile ocean
We meet us in frightening dreams
With painful silence
My brother
Behold!
The failure's bloody flood
Fills the valley of valleys
O sister
Tied to that saline grace of
A noble and indestructible ocean
We meet us closely enfolded
Looking for the lands of our coming years
My sister
Behold!
Through the flood's coagulated depths
We wade through the valley of valleys
