Blow on, blow on, cold winds, blow on With furious gust and roar; Roll on, roll on, dark wave, roll on To break on the far-off shore; My ship is a beauty, I ’tend to my duty, I n safety I brave all the perils that come; No trial or sorrows, My happy heart borrows, While over the fathomless ocean I roam. Blow on, blow on, cold winds, blow on, And howl thro’ the shrouds above; Roll on, roll on, dark wave, roll on, My ship is my pride and love; No happier pillow Than here on the billow, Where seagulls will sing me so sweetly to rest; Tho’ waves roll around me, And dangers surround me, My life on the ocean is happy and blest.
