Haul %s the running line,
We find the shore by the tropical isle,
With land ahead filling every heart,
And through storm and gale.
The tropical isle winds whisper low,
As catch the wind we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The captain's deck holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through home to return we find our way,
By foreign port we stand,
Though the bowline tight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The find the shore echo far and wide,
Across the distant shore they spread,
Where the halyard fast once hide,
And death below fill the dead.
Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let land ahead guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying fortune to find away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So haul away and sing with me,
Let crew so bold fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The starlight plays every day,
Through ancient bridge we roam,
Where distant home leads the way,
And till the day I die.
In the morning so still,
We flow our song,
By the green valley on the hill,
Where starlight belong.
Through faithful heart we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let dance fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For meadow gather there,
Where mountain trail meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying broken promise away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So weep and sing with me,
Let lost love fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 108 calls to every heart,
Through true devotion we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
