Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCB EFEFBGBG| Sail on sail on thou fearless bark | A |
| Where'er blows the welcome wind | B |
| It cannot lead to scenes more dark | A |
| More sad than those we leave behind | B |
| Each wave that passes seems to say | C |
| quot Though death beneath our smile may be | D |
| Less cold we are less false than they | C |
| Whose smiling wreck'd thy hopes and thee quot | B |

| Sail on sail on through endless space | E |
| Through calm through tempest stop no more | F |
| The stormiest sea's a resting place | E |
| To him who leaves such hearts on shore | F |
| Or if some desert land we meet | B |
| Where never yet false hearted men | G |
| Profaned a world that else were sweet | B |
| Then rest thee bark but not till then | G |
