• Pushing, pulling, ebb and flow;
    From where do you come, and where do you go?
    Floating, falling, wake and sleep;
    Reach onto land, then back to the deep.

    Coming, going, life and death;
    How do you breathe, and where is your breath?
    Charging, fleeing, light and dark;
    Seizing the shoreline, yet leaving no mark.

    Roaring, whispering, you and me;
    Oh, my companion, who can you be?
    Forward, backward, windward and lee;
    This is my voice, and I am the sea.
