Mother of the Sea
March 19, 2022
Oh, have pity, mother of the sea!
Unleash your roiling waves on us
Release your fierce animals
Free your captive souls
Return them to our land
For we do not know
Oh, have pity, mother of the sea!
Hurt us with your incessant punches
Free yourself from our
Grasp
For we do not know
Oh, mother of the sea!
Forgive us for what we have done
For we know we will not escape with
Impunity
