Storm is the first song of The Ocean Saga that Odysseus sings as he and his men face an impenetrable storm. They must survive and make it out alive before their ship capsizes.
[ODYSSEUS]
These waves and tides have grown in strength and size
Is it nature or divine or a blessing in disguise?
Our home's in sight, this storm's our final fight
There's no time to die
[ODYSSEUS, spoken]
Comrades!
[CREW, spoken]
Sir!
[ODYSSEUS, CREW]
Brace for a storm (Storm)
The likes of which we've never seen before
Brace for a storm (Storm)
With home so close, we must keep pushing forward
[SOLDIERS]
Full speed ahead!
[ODYSSEUS]
Head towards the island but avoid the crashing waves
Tread where the tide is flat and then you will be safе
[EURYLOCHUS]
Captain, we will capsize with these waves, our fleet will fail
[ODYSSEUS, CREW]
Have them follow my ship, I'll ensure that we prevail
Storm (Storm)
[EURYLOCHUS]
We're taking too much damage to survive
[ODYSSEUS, CREW]
We'll beat this storm (Storm)
[EURYLOCHUS]
At this rate, we won't make it out alive
[PERIMEDES & ELPENOR, spoken]
Captain, look!
[ODYSSEUS & EURYLOCHUS]
An island in the sky...
[ODYSSEUS]
Eurylochus grab the harpoons
As many as you can find
[EURYLOCHUS]
What do you have in mind?
[ODYSSEUS]
We're gonna shoot for the sky
[EURYLOCHUS, spoken]
What?
[CREW]
Storm! Storm!
[ODYSSEUS]
Everyone grab a harpoon and aim it high!
[CREW]
Storm! Storm!
[ODYSSEUS]
We're shooting for the island in the sky!
In the sky!
