Also:
We, we waves,
That are rocking the winds
To rest–
Green cradles, we waves!
Wet are we, and salty;
Leap like flames of fire–
Wet flames are we:
Burning, extinguishing;
Cleansing, replenishing;
Bearing, engendering.
We, we waves,
That are rocking the winds
To rest!
August Strindberg / We waves / Trans. Edwin Björkman
