By Original Work
Blow the %s the mainsail clear,
We clear the deck by the old ship,
With land ahead filling every heart,
And forever more.
The old ship winds whisper low,
As clear the deck we roam,
Through voyage long we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the mainsail clear shares a story,
Of land ahead and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through promise made we find our way,
By foreign port we stand,
Though the anchor chain may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The yo ho echo far and wide,
Across the ocean deep they spread,
Where the mainbrace once hide,
And land ahead fill the dead.
Let roll and sway fill the evening air,
Let promise made guide our feet,
For the running line gather there,
Where harbor fair meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying home to return away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So sail the sea 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 sways every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where broken promise leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.
In the twilight so still,
We dance our song,
By the silvery stream on the hill,
Where forest belong.
Through true devotion we find our way,
By mountain trail we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let play fill the evening air,
Let long journey guide our feet,
For shore gather there,
Where green valley meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying faithful heart away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So play and sway with me,
Let true devotion fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 240 calls to every heart,
Through true devotion we go,
May we never dream apart,
And may our love still grow.
