O long the way and short the day,
No light in tower or town,
The waters roar and far the shore-
My ship, my ship goes down!
'Tis all in vain to strive again,
My cry the billows drown,
The fight is done, the wind has won-
My ship, my ship goes down!
Bright sun, adieu! Thou'lt shine anew
When skies no longer frown,
But I-the deafening billows crash-
My ship, my ship goes down!
O Long The Way
