What a mild and tempting breeze
Above a calm and sleeping sea
With strong arms we swam out to the island
Not anyone knows we were that close
Egretta garzetta
Egretta garzetta
Somateria spectabilis
Somateria spectabilis
Only sea birds can make
such a sound
That waves will carry around
For thousands and thousands
of nautical miles
We heard their beak
talk all through the night
Egretta garzetta
Egretta garzetta
Somateria spectabilis
Somateria spectabilis
Egretta garzetta
Egretta garzetta
Somateria mollissima
