galore<br>Onto strand’s silver shore, <br>Like a ghost from a galleon’s grave.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the shout of coarse cannon’s rough roar<br>That rang round Britain’s bays<br>In Drake’s drum’s finest days, <br>When England and Spain went to war.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the piping aboard of massed men, <br>As brave sailors set sail, <br>Swearing never to fail<br>If England is threatened again.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the murmur of muttering crew<br>Who sent cruel Captain Bligh<br>All adrift ’neath the sky, <br>As the Bounty retreated from view.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the hovering hum of the heat<br>In the eye that is formed<br>In a tropical storm<br>As it seems to have paused for a sleep.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the pitter and patter of rain, <br>Which refuses to stop<br>Until every last drop<br>Is returned with its might to the main.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the thrash of the threatening tide, <br>As it rushes, so rough, <br>In great gales from the gulf, <br>Fetching flotsam along for the ride.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the moan of a shuddering mast, <br>As it bends in the gale, <br>Which hopes it will fail<br>In the force of its battering blast.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the clap of loud thunder’s harsh crack, <br>As lighting tongues flick<br>To the sea, for a lick, <br>Since it’s salt, they withdraw and pull back.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the creak of strained rigging and ropes<br>In the teeth of a storm, <br>When the crew, all forlorn, <br>Wish they won’t wash away, like their hopes.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the roar of the rocks on rough reef, <br>As they cruelly bite<br>And hole hulls, in dark night, <br>Of lost, passing ships, with sharp teeth.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the slop of salt sea round the wreck, <br>Where inquisitive fish<br>Look around, in the wish<br>For a new site to dwell on the deck.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the deafening foghorn’s retort<br>As it warns sightless ships<br>To beware of chalk cliffs<br>As they peer for safe passage to port.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the sweet splash of fleet, flying fish, <br>As they leap, like gazelles, <br>From storm-driven swells<br>To fly like a bird, when they wish.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the popping of burst bladderwrack, <br>As beachcombers’ bare feet<br>Trample fronds, as they seek<br>For treasure to stow in their sack.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the lolloping lash of the swell, <br>As it slaps painted planks<br>Of the quay, by whose banks<br>Light pleasurecraft stay for a spell.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the bash of brash breakers that ride, <br>Like an unseated horse<br>Runs along on the course, <br>Leaving stragglers to sink in the tide.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the roll of rash, rollicking race: <br>That current so strong, <br>As it tears all along<br>With a menacing leer on its face.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the cry and crude call of gruff gulls, <br>As they squabble and squawk, <br>Fighting, fierce as a hawk, <br>For fine flat-bellied fish of their culls.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the clamouring crash of the surf<br>As it breaks, crisply white<br>Like a fountain of light, <br>Mixing water for all that it’s worth.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the bubbling froth of flecked foam, <br>As it sinks in soft sand<br>With no wave of its hand, <br>As it fritters away and is gone.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the swish of sharp shingle at play, <br>When the backwash returns<br>To the ocean, which yearns<br>To smuggle the pebbles away.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the whispering sift of whipped sand<br>Brushed along by the breeze<br>From the stormy salt seas<br>To drift and build dunes on the land.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the lilt of flat calm’s lullaby, <br>When the surface is stilled<br>And the silence is filled<br>With an echoing hush from sheer sky.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the billowing breath of light breeze, <br>Which the spinnaker caught<br>To return us to port, <br>Where we disembarked at our ease.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>In the swing of a sea-shanty’s cheer, <br>We ex-mariners croon<br>In the smoky back room<br>Of the inn, with tobacco and beer.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Sing along, sing along to the song of the sea<br>But the quiet of night is the best, <br>When the lighthouse can keep<br>Silent watch, not to sleep, <br>So sailors, safe, slumber and rest.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=C.+Richard+Miles">C.
