Sailor's Grave (水手之墓) - Glenn Yarbrough/The Men Of The Robert Shaw Chorale[00:00:00]

Our barque was far [00:00:06]

Far from the land[00:00:08]

When the fairest[00:00:09]

Of our gallant band[00:00:11]

Grew deadly pale [00:00:13]

And pined away[00:00:14]

Like the twilight dawn[00:00:16]

Of an autumn day [00:00:18]

We watched him[00:00:27]

Through long hours of pain [00:00:28]

Our fears were great [00:00:30]

Our hopes in vain [00:00:32]

Death's through he give me;[00:00:34]

Made no alarm [00:00:36]

He smiled and died[00:00:37]

In his messmate's arms [00:00:39]

We had no costly winding sheet [00:00:48]

We placed two round shot at his feet[00:00:51]

And in his hammock [00:00:54]

Snug and sound:[00:00:56]

A kingly shroud like marble bound [00:00:57]

We proudly decked his funeral vest[00:01:08]

With a starry flag upon his breast [00:01:11]

We gave him this[00:01:15]

As a badge so brave [00:01:16]

And then he was fit for a sailor's grave [00:01:18]

Our voices broke [00:01:29]

Our hearts turned weak[00:01:30]

And tears were seen[00:01:32]

On the brownest cheek [00:01:33]

A quiver played[00:01:35]

On the lip of pride[00:01:37]

As we lowered him down[00:01:38]

Our dark ship's side [00:01:40]

A splash a plunge[00:01:49]

And our task was o'er[00:01:51]

And the billows rolled[00:01:52]

As they rolled before [00:01:54]

And many a wild prayer[00:01:56]

Follow to the wave[00:01:58]

And the sound him[00:01:59]

Into a sailor's grave[00:02:00]
