1. I do not sail the seas for fear of harm,
The sea has horrors and raging waves,

2. And I still walk the land as my path,
Neither the sea nor the land lead my way.

3. I am not infatuated with my neighbor,
But with my neighbor's son I am infatuated.

4. I desire no other lad when I see
Him frolic when I stir him to play.

5. He does not split the solid rock, but he
Splits the stubborn giant's thick skull.
