Quastenflosser (English Version)

In the days of old when giants roamed,

There is a shadow in the blue with a mysterious glow,

Still like a mystery, older than the stars,

Ancient hearts move through the vast ocean.

They called you a fossil, called you a myth on a museum shelf,

Then the ocean opened and sang your name again.

coelacanth, rise up high,

With a heart of thunder and a spirit to fly,

In the face of trials, we will not bend,

Together we conquer, we stand 'til the end.

You move as if you were remembering continents that drifted,

old fins like cards that have never learned to fade.

A museum sign next to your name, where silence sleeps,

A heartbeat from the deep sea, steady, almost mystical.

In your order of coelacanth, nine out of ten families have died out,

But these old souls from forgotten times come to life again!

coelacanth, rise up high,

With a heart of thunder and a spirit to fly,

In the face of trials, we will not bend,

Together we conquer, we stand 'til the end.

Under the stars, as the night unfolds,

The stories of his bravery are lovingly told,

From the whispers of the ancients to the legends.....

Miguashaiidae (death!)

Diplocercidae (death!)

Hadronectoridae (death!)

Rhabdodermatidae (death!)

Coelacanthidae (death!)

Laugiidae (death!)

Whiteiidae (death!)

Rebellatricidae (death!)

Mawsoniidae (death!)

Latimeriidae (our family of heroes!)

coelacanth, rise up high,

With a heart of thunder and a spirit to fly,

In the face of trials, we will not bend,

Together we conquer, we stand 'til the end.

So let us march with our heads held high,

coelacanth, let the legend dance and sing day and night!
