Oh my brother
If the sea
Should rise against you
Do not fear, no.
Not the darkness
Nor your sorrow
But take your courage
Underneath
Oh my brother
Since you've been gone
Mother's garden
Has stopped growing
Father's age has
Started showing
Since you set out
On the sea
Oh my brother
Hold the memory
Twenty summers
You were with me
Still I'm counting
Twenty winters
Have now passed
You're at sea
Twenty winters
You're at sea
Oh my brother
Do the answers
To a question
I have brought
Oh my brother,
Bring them back here
Bring the language
Of our God
Oh my brother,
When you come home,
All our kin will
Celebrate you
But if you will do
Go on searching
We will terry
As you're gone
