Two boats float on the horizon,
as I watch the setting sun.
They put the picture in perspective,
how deep and far the water runs.
It makes my concerns seem awfully small now.
The vastness hits me like a bomb.
The burden of my ghosts lifts from my shoulders
and I think "Alayhim as-salaam"

Two boats float on the horizon,

They put the picture in perspective,

It makes my concerns seem awfully small now.
The vastness hits me like a bomb.

and I think "Alayhim as-salaam"
Alayhim as-salaam should roughly translate to "peace be upon them all" if I'm correctly informed.
