Little mermaid

hudba: Jiří Vondráček

text: Lucie Strýčková

On top of waves

I ´m a part of the tide

Silvery spume seacost washing

The old castle wing

There lived a young handsome king

You hardly see smile

On his face

Something he longed for

Kneeled on the seashore a long while

A little mermaid

Remained in his mind

And heart

And that was me

The lost girl of the sea

As people go

To where they long

He entered the sea to be with me

His feet are washed by silver foam

Me alone

Like the sea´s flow

He dived and he spun

He was so happy

In my arms

He spent the most of time with me

He longed to know

Who loves me so

Tell me

Why are the humans so weak

Tell me

What makes them let down

The old castle wing

Built on the cliffs for the king

You hardly see smile

On his face

Something he longed for

Kneeled on the seashore

A long while

The little mermaid

Remained in his

Mind and heart

And he could tell

In love he fell

Nothing to add

He should have been sad

Rather than fighting worthlessly

So many battles

Victory, sacrifice

He knew what was right

There’s no need to fight

He’s lost his mermaid, anyway

Tell me do mermaids feel the same ?

And suddenly

Belongs to me

And suddenly

He’s loving me

Like people go

There where they want

He entered the sea

To be with me

His face is washed by silver foam

Me alone

Like the sea ´s flow

He dived and he spun

Oh, he was so happy in my arms

Now he will spend his life with me

And we both know

Who loves me so

On white tops of the waves

I ´m a part of the tide

There, shining in moonlight

The old castle wing
