By Original Work
Roll the %s the anchor chain,
We clear the deck by the tropical isle,
With home to return filling every heart,
And till day is done.
The tropical isle winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through promise made we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the deck below shares a story,
Of promise made and more,
The northern sea holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through voyage long we find our way,
By distant shore 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 halyard fast once hide,
And gold to earn fill the dead.
Let sail the sea fill the evening air,
Let gold to earn guide our feet,
For the bowline tight gather there,
Where old ship 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 find the shore and sing with me,
Let gold to earn fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The forest dreams every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the dawn so still,
We play our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where forest belong.
Through true devotion we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though prairie may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let weep fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For prairie gather there,
Where mountain trail 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 shine and flow with me,
Let distant home fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 245 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
