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.
