Daughter of the Sea lyrics
“Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea,”
“Beware,” I heard him cry
His words carried upon the ocean breeze,
As he sank beneath the tide
Those blood-soaked shores of Kalimdor,
Where sailors fought and died
The Admiral fell at Theramore,
Because she left his side
Why this? Why this, oh Daughter of the Sea?
Why this? Did you forget your seaside days?
Always the pride of our nation’s eyes,
How could she go astray?
When she did flee across the ocean deep,
The Admiral followed west
What else but sail to save a daughter’s life,
And pray she still drew breath?
But there he found upon those distant shores,
Enemies ’pon the rise!
But when he faced those savage foes
His daughter stood aside
And buried deep beneath the waves,
Betrayed by family
To his nation, with his last breath, cried,
“Beware the Daughter of the Sea.”
“I’m listening now… father,”
I heard, I heard, across a moonlit sea,
The old voice warning me,
“Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea,”
“Beware, beware…
…of me.”
- Kalimdor:
A city in the World of Warcraft universe, located on a rocky island east of Dustwallow Marsh.
- Why this? Why this, oh Daughter of the Sea?
Why ...:
References to Jaina's lullaby.
«Don't you forget your seaside days Always the pride of our nation's eyes You will never go astray.»

[@Radu Robert] A lot of your annotations are for lines that are straight forward, "Annotations should be helpful for translators since they explain context or history, allusions to other songs". "Interpretations" could simply be left in footnotes.
