The fisherman´s wife

 

The fisherman´s wife is looking out over the sea...

The fisherman´s wife is looking for her husband...

The fisherman´s wife is looking for her son...


 

The fisherman´s wife is looking for her brother...

The fisherman´s wife is looking for her father...
  
 

They all went out with boats,
to harvest from the often so rewarding sea... 

 

But she always know in her heart and mind; 
the sea gives, and the sea takes... 
  
 

Many husbands, 
many son´s, brothers 
and fathers are with the sea now...

Those that never came back... 
 

The sea gives, and the sea takes...  

She knows this in her heart and mind...

A family must eat and make a living...
 
 

A price that can be high...

Calm and beautiful today, 
but fierce and strong tomorrow...

How will it be tomorrow? 
As calm and beautiful as today? 
 

Or will it be angry,
with no mercy and regret 
and take those who came to harvest...



She knows what can be...

But in her heart she believes and pray 
for a safe return... 






So she´ll come every day 
to look for their safe return home 
from the sea... 



She is the fisherman´s wife...
