Sail on, sail on Lyrics by John Fernström

Songs of the Sea, Op. 62

0

Sail on, sail on, thou fearless bark
Wherever blows the welcome wind;
It cannot lead to scenes more dark
More sad than those we leave behind
Each smiling billow seems to say
"Though death beneath our surface be
Less cold we are, less false than they
Whose smiling wrecked thy hopes and thee."
Sail on, sail on, through endless space
Through calm, through tempest, stop no more;
The stormiest sea's a resting-place
To him who leaves such hearts on shore
Or, if some desert land we meet
Where never yet false-hearted men
Profaned a world, that else were sweet
Then rest thee, bark, but not till then
