Come help me die, my daughter

Walk me beside the river to the beach

Take a branch with your knife

Take my left with your right

Don't be afraid, my girl

Take me in to the shore

I'm not cold, I'm not cold

Take my hand, take a load

Let me lie on your arms

I'm weightless in the sea

Up to my ears

The salt sits in a circle around me

Take my life into your life

Take a branch with your knife

Come help me die, my daughter
