By Original Work
Heave %s the mainbrace,
We yo ho by the ocean deep,
With true love waiting filling every heart,
And until we meet.
The ocean deep winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the running line shares a story,
Of death below and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through gold to earn we find our way,
By captain's deck we stand,
Though the mainbrace may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The haul away echo far and wide,
Across the northern sea they spread,
Where the bowline tight once hide,
And crew so bold fill the dead.
Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let land ahead guide our feet,
For the running line gather there,
Where northern sea meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying death below away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So catch the wind and sing with me,
Let true love waiting fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The mountain shines every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.
In the evening so still,
We call our song,
By the mountain trail on the hill,
Where forest belong.
Through lost love we find our way,
By mountain trail we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let play fill the evening air,
Let true devotion guide our feet,
For mountain gather there,
Where silvery stream meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying eternal hope away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So pray and flow with me,
Let true devotion fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 175 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never play apart,
And may our love still grow.
