the waybacks - beyond the northwest passage كلمات الأغنية

no one could hear the starting crack
the water pouring forth
no man alive could ere survive
to sail across the north

but as the ancient ice gives way into the foaming sea
so near the land of franklin’s hand
a passage comes to be

three centuries ago our father’s perished in the chase
now the hand of progress it would their history erase
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage

so it seems our bravest history
will never be repeated
for in our soul is burning coal
and nature we have cheated

well once our father’s chipped through ice
we now can fairly sail
such things of ease will ne’er appease
such seekers of the grail
three centuries ago our father’s perished in the chase
now the hand of progress it would their history erase
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage

now the dawning of our end is near
the curtrains never fall
we are resigned to slow decline and better days recall

the tundra of the open plain
now sinking in our wake
the peaks defrost, the bounties lost as ocean’s overtake

what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage

in the epic tale of man and earth
what will our struggle mean?
where will we seek our rival weak now match for cruel machines
for in the end she will prevail
man’s glory age has been
a challenge now must turn to how we conquer foes within

three centuries ago we sailed for distant shores
maybe kelsey, thompson, and rogers now point us inward to explore
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage
what wonder will we find ahead
what new land will we ravage
will siren’s call shipwreck us all?
beyond the northwest passage
