From the primeval times
To the great expanse of fallen
In the infinite, in the far
Outstretching spaces
Ride the sign as water-mother
Towards the east, and also southward
Towards the west, and also northward
The sea in all directions
In a solitude of ethereal
From the East in fierceness
Whips the ocean into surges
Strikes the stars with sprays of weeping
Union now of force and beauty
Sink the storm-winds into slumber
Play the forces of the Northland
Till at last in full conception
Ride the sign as water-mother
Towards the east, and also southward
Towards the west, and also northward
The sea in all directions
