Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDDDB EBFBGGB HBIBJJJB KLMLNNL| The winds are singing a death knell | A |
| Out on the main to night | B |
| The sky droops low and many a bark | C |

| And a wreck shall drift to some unknown shore | D |
| Before to morrow's light | B |

| The clouds are hanging a death pall | E |
| Over the sea to night | B |

| Away from harbors bright | B |
| Shall sob their last for their quiet home | G |
| And sobbing sink 'neath the whirling foam | G |
| Before the morning's light | B |
| - | |
| The waves are weaving a death shroud | H |
| Out on the main to night | B |
| Alas the last prayer whispered there | I |
| By lips with terror white | B |
| Over the ridge of gloom | J |
| Not a star will loom | J |
| God help the souls that will meet their doom | J |
| Before the dawn of light | B |

| And the sleepers sleep but beyond the deep | N |
| The eyes that watch for the ships shall weep | N |
| For the hearts they bore away | L |
