The Merman

Oh life, I think I saw him!

The water spirit, my element

Do you remember two years ago,

I gave my voice to the sea-witch

to reunite with the prince

and stay in his beach castle.

Oh life, I think I saw him!

The water spirit, the merman

My water sign.

He drowned me in his enchanting words

I was struck with the waves of strange feelings

and I can't resist anymore.

Oh life, what should I do?

I took a terrible choice

to exchange my voice for a pair of legs

and now I am bounded to the prince

unable to go back to the sea.

Oh life, how stupid I was!

For thinking that I was the water sign

And now I saw him, I met him.

The merman who sang me songs

with his seductive voice

while I am bounded here on the land

with my beach prince.
