Hanno The Navigator - Al Stewart (阿尔·史蒂伍德)[00:00:00]
For going to sea[00:00:02]
It's a good day[00:00:02]
Hanno the Navigator said to me [00:00:04]
There's an open sky and a steady breeze[00:00:07]
Out beyond the Pillars of Hercules [00:00:11]
Above the foam-kissed waves seagulls scream[00:00:14]
Up in the masts of our trireme[00:00:18]
And it's a good day[00:00:21]
For going to sea[00:00:23]
Hanno the Navigator said to me [00:00:25]
Water[00:00:28]
Water[00:00:31]
From horizon to horizon[00:00:34]
All I see is water[00:00:39]
Steer beyond all maps and charts[00:00:42]
Down along the coast of Africa [00:00:49]
The first Phoenicians on this beach [00:00:53]
Where the monkeys gibber and the parakeets screech [00:00:56]
Strangest women run wild down there [00:01:00]
Covered head to toe in fur and hair [00:01:04]
They fight like demons [00:01:07]
Better let them be [00:01:09]
Hanno the Navigator said to me [00:01:11]
Water[00:01:14]
Water[00:01:17]
From horizon to horizon[00:01:21]
All I see is water[00:01:24]
When you pull close to your fire at night[00:01:28]
With your family framed in the candlelight [00:01:35]
Safe inside these walls of stone[00:01:39]
In the only village you've ever known [00:01:42]
The rain-soaked moon plays splintered crystal[00:01:45]
Shadows on your windowsill [00:01:49]
Like sparks of light in the shifting skies [00:01:53]
Our ancient ships go sailing still on[00:01:56]
Water[00:02:00]
Water[00:02:04]
When my sailing days are done[00:02:07]
I'll seek Poseidon's daughter [00:02:10]
Oarsmen pull and curse and sweat[00:02:14]
Underneath this creaking deck [00:02:53]
At night I hear their stories told [00:02:56]
Strong through storms and weak for gold [00:03:00]
Carthage stands like an azure pearl[00:03:04]
Here in the middle of the known world [00:03:07]
And it's a good day[00:03:11]
For going to sea [00:03:13]
Hanno the Navigator said to me [00:03:14]
Water[00:03:18]
Water[00:03:20]
From horizon to horizon[00:03:24]
All I see is water [00:03:28]
Water[00:03:31]
Water[00:03:35]
When my sailing days are done[00:03:38]
I'll seek Poseidon's daughter [00:03:42]
It's a good day[00:03:46]
For going to sea [00:03:55]
Hanno the Navigator said to me[00:03:56]
