11. Havets Plage (2:15)
Nede ved kystens øde egne ligger snekken bi,
Fjordens odder skjuler skibet med det sorte sejl,
Vagten står i stævnen og spejder ud til havets rand,
Venter på en ensom kogge, fyldt med sydlandks guld.

Ude på havet sejler et skib, tynget af sit læs,
Lydløst og med lynets hast, sejler snekken frem,
Hvæsset klinge så blanke som sølver spejler solens lys,
Havet farvs rødt med blod,
Fredelige sømænd slagtes for deres guld.
Havets plage,
Havets plage,
Havets plage,
Havets plage!

Havets plage


[English translation:

Down by the coast's barren lands, the warship lies to
The fjord's headlands hide the ship with the black sail
The watchman stands in the prow and spies out to the sea's edge
Waits for a lonesome cog, filled with southern gold

Out on the sea sails a ship, weighted by its load
Soundlessly and with lightning speed the warship sails forth
Whetted blades as bright as silver reflect the light of the sun
The sea is dyed red with blood
Peaceful sailors slaughtered for their gold
The scourge of the sea]
