ian david green - the voyage of the queen marie كلمات الأغنية

we set out on the queen marie
full of rum and gold
to do what we’d been told
bring back pieces of the sun
and with the main sail set on high
the wind blew from the starboard side
we mumbled forth on waters mild
and sailed into the sun

after fifteen months at sea
there was just the cook and me
counting out the gold
and drinking all the rum
after nineteen months at sea
there was just the ship and me
counting out my gold
and dreaming of the sun

“oh have courage!” i did shout
pointing to the land
in the afternoon
an island made of sun
and with a caskеt laid with gold
to the shallow shores i rowed
as pеople gathered in the glow
shining like the sun
and there they held me to the sky
carried like the cross of christ
burning gold upon my eyes
and raised me to the sun
and as the furnace closed around
all the drowning and the drowned
there the queen marie went down
in pieces of the sun

a million souls lit up the night
golden fireflies in flight
drifting up and out of sight
and swallowed by the sun
a million years fell by as one
as every father to his son
gave his heart and returned home
to the caverns of the sun

- ian david green
