Til Havs (To The Sea) You blow, fresh wind of the ocean from the southwest and sweetly caress the sailor’s cheek best of all the winds   Toward the sea and storms you boldly course toward sea and storms be then on guard! On an endless ocean path, life is free and cares are forgotten when the green-white sea sings its high freedom song Toward sea . . . . Swell, great lovely sail, swell on the push of the wind with resounding delight towards mountainous waves in the moment’s utmost joy Toward the sea . . . .
