Answer:

The Seafarer is an Anglo-Saxon elegy that is composed in Old English and was written down in The Exeter Book in the tenth century. It's been translated multiple times, most notably by American poet Ezra Pound. The poem deals with themes of searching for purpose, dealing with death, and spiritual journeys.
