          spring rain
          an old letter
          unfolded again

          vårregn
          ett gammalt brev
          vecklas ut igen

     empty beach
     my ear to a conch
     hears your whisper

     öde strand
     mitt öra mot en snäcka
     hör din viskning

               open sky
               the sea claims the sand
               under my feet

               öppna himlar
               havet tar sanden
               under mina fötter
