“Hol über!” Fähre bei Kaub – Rhineferry Kaub

onto his golden green streaming waves.

Diamonds shimmering on the waters

awoken by sun rays breaking through the rainy grey sky.

Invites us onto its ferry bark –

gliding quietly deep in the water,

Undeterred by the traffic of the 21st century rushing alongside

travels the boat back and forth, the Nachenferry, since 1879,

bypassing the water depth gauge at the Engelsburg,

carrying us patiently over the fathomless deep waters,

as it is taking mankind over from that bank to the other

for centuries.
