Adrift! A little boat adrift!
|
Adrift! A little boat adrift! And night is coming down! Will no one guide a little boat Unto the nearest town? So Sailors say -- on yesterday -- Just as the dusk was brown One little boat gave up its strife And gurgled down and down. So angels say -- on yesterday -- Just as the dawn was red One little boat -- o'erspent with gales -- Retrimmed its masts -- redecked its sails -- And shot -- exultant on! |
