Unadine

Sunbeams flood golden the fisherman´s net
Waves charm sofetly the old man´s boat
A steady change of flood and tide
The secrets of sea covered in deep blue water

Alone now - seeing his final days come
Scared when a wave rocks his wodden coffin
Keeping the secret inside his heart
Remorseless filling his mind when he reflects

Once the sea gave him a beautiful bride
Adorable blue eyes united what´s above and below
Graceful being - half girl and half fish
Becoming the lover of this fearless strong man

Encounters with her in secrecy were full of joy
At nights physical differences disappeared
Her promise of eternal love to her groom
Two souls entwined on the fisherman´s boat

A visionary glooming shadow is all that remained
Daughter of Neptun sank drowned to dark ground
Killed by a vicious sea-snakes attack
Sent by her father - cruel, cold and mean man.

maybe it´s man´s destiny, that women live in a different world and even being with them, one never touches more than the surface of it. wine
