Coromandel Fishers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDE FGBB| Rise brothers rise the wakening skies pray to the morning light | A |
| The wind lies asleep in the arms of the dawn like a child that has cried all night | A |
| Come let us gather our nets from the shore and set our catamarans free | B |
| To capture the leaping wealth of the tide for we are the kings of the sea | B |
| - | |
| No longer delay let us hasten away in the track of the sea gull's call | C |
| The sea is our mother the cloud is our brother the waves are our comrades all | C |
| What though we toss at the fall of the sun where the hand of the sea god drives | D |
| He who holds the storm by the hair will hide in his breast our lives | E |
| - | |
| Sweet is the shade of the cocoanut glade and the scent of the mango grove | F |
| And sweet are the sands at the full o' the moon with the sound of the voices we love | G |
| But sweeter O brothers the kiss of the spray and the dance of the wild foam's glee | B |
| Row brothers row to the edge of the verge where the low sky mates with the sea | B |
