Oh wrap me in my country’s flag and lay me in the cold blue sea. Let the roaring of the waves my solemn requiem be. And I shall sleep a pleasant sleep while storms above their vigils keep. My Captain brave shall read for me the service of the silent dead. And yay shall lower me in the waves when all the prayers are said. And I will find my long long home among the billows and the foam. Farewell my friends for many a league we’ve sailed together on the deep. Come let us shake our hands I’ll sail no more but shipmates wear for weep. I’m bound above my course is run. I near the port my voyage is done.
