O, emerald angel, give me pity!
This immortal sea king has dared to dream
Away with my chains, free me from this city,
Where sorrow and filth bubble in cream.

Sweet viridian seraph, look into my seas,
As they so long to be one with life.
So distant from your guarded bushes and trees,
Yet my oceans reach in strife.

God, grace me, as I look on this jade cherub I see,
Her song above forest floor soothes Leviathan's heart.
Too good a creature to live in where mortals teem,
Yet my waters ever seek her until earth is torn apart.

So, good lady of green, give me you, I, a lord of blue;
For in all I do, I do for you, done earnest and true
