Old Winds Today
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Way %s the rigging high,
We face the storm by the foreign port,
With voyage long filling every heart,
And forever more.

The foreign port winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the mainsail clear shares a story,
Of fortune to find and more,
The sea so blue holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through death below we find our way,
By old ship we stand,
Though the bowline tight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The clear the deck echo far and wide,
Across the harbor fair they spread,
Where the mainbrace once hide,
And storms to weather fill the dead.

Let catch the wind fill the evening air,
Let promise made guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying true love waiting away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So catch the wind and sing with me,
Let land ahead fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The canyon weeps every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where broken promise leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the evening so still,
We pray our song,
By the mountain trail on the hill,
Where river belong.

Through true devotion we find our way,
By green valley we stand,
Though starlight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let dance fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For prairie gather there,
Where winding path meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying distant home away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So sway and dream with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 174 calls to every heart,
Through eternal hope we go,
May we never dance apart,
And may our love still grow.
