| The spirits of your fathers | H |

| As they roar on the shore | M |
| When the stormy winds do blow | E |
| When the battle rages loud and long | G |
| And the stormy winds do blow | E |

| The meteor flag of England | A |
| Shall yet terrific burn | N |
| Till danger's troubled night depart | O |
| And the star of peace return | N |
| Then then ye ocean warriors | H |
| Our song and feast shall flow | E |
| To the fame of your name | J |
| When the storm has ceased to blow | E |
| When the fiery fight is heard no more | M |
| And the storm has ceased to blow | E |
