The whole album tells a story of a group of vikings who leave Norway in search of a new land. Vinland Saga is the intro, Farewell Proud Men says of when they embark on their journey and in Elegy we see the thoughts of two lovers, a man who went on the journey and the woman he left behind. This song, is a continuation, she worries about him because she sees that the sea and weather are rough and his perspective show that they are sailing through a storm and he prays for a solemn (still) sea.
Norwegian part:
Sail the strong sea, the sun
has gone down into the wide ocean
in the dark depths rests
a dream of an unknown land
