Summary:
Berce, mon bateau, sur la crête des vagues, ouvre ta voile aux vents et suis le gouvernail. Du matin au soir, je pêche. Sous l’orage, dans la mer furieuse, j’étais trempé mais qu’importe, nous maîtrisons le vent. Le calme revenu, l’écume est blanche comme neige. Bientôt le soleil se couchera, plein de poissons, mon bateau fend le goémon.
