You fantastic men
Who know how to moor at a jetty
You who with a sun-weathered hand
Hold the sheet taut
You strong, you silent
You calm, you steady, who know
How to splice a rope
Who find your course through the night
You who bring the boat to harbor
Over swelling waves
You men who know everything about water
Oh, to be able to brace a topsail
To tack, to rig a stay
Oh, to be able, with the wind behind
To sail on a summer's day
You fantastic men
Who inhabit and work the seas
Is there any finer art
Here in life than this
To correctly moor at a jetty?
You fantastic men
Who inhabit and work the seas
Is there any finer art
Here in life than this
To correctly moor at a jetty?
