One day I’ll come swimming

beside your ship or someone will,

and if you hear the siren sing, listen to her.

For if you close your ears only nothing happens,

you will never change.

I don’t care if you risk your life to scary creatures

with webbed feet and violet eyes.

You can enter their caves and castles,

and perhaps their glass laboratories.

Just don’t be fooled by anyone but yourself,

for they will never be of any help to you.
