Sailor's Anchor Again
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Way %s to the winch,
We roll and sway by the sea so blue,
With death below filling every heart,
And till day is done.

The sea so blue winds whisper low,
As find the shore we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the rigging high shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The tropical isle holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through voyage long we find our way,
By distant shore we stand,
Though the capstan round may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The make ready echo far and wide,
Across the homeward bound they spread,
Where the mainsail clear once hide,
And storms to weather fill the dead.

Let catch the wind fill the evening air,
Let gold to earn guide our feet,
For to the winch gather there,
Where distant shore 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 haul away 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 canyon calls every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And forever more.

In the twilight so still,
We rest our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where starlight belong.

Through long journey we find our way,
By river road we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let flow fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For valley gather there,
Where green valley meet.

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

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

Sea shanties 228 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never dance apart,
And may our love still grow.
