a door in a stone building

The whole sea has revolted, The nation in full spate Has earth and heaven assaulted And over sea-walls vaulted With terror in its wake. ... Eternal heaven bear witness Before all heaven’s fools: Though ships bob on the surface And oceans run beneath us It is the water rules. Details in English translation from the poem "The whole sea has revolted" written by Sándor Petőfi in 1848
