lirik lagu the greenland whale fisheries – ryan’s fancy
in eighteen*hundred and forty*one
one june, the seventeenth day
a whaling ship, her anchor she weighed
and for greenland she set sail, brave boys
and for greenland she set sail
the lookout stood on the cross*trees high
with a spyglass in his hand
“there’s a whale, there’s a whale,”
“there’s a whale fish” he cried
“and she blows at every span, brave boys
and she blows at every span”
the captain, he stood on the quarterdeck
and thе ice was in his eye
“ovеrhaul, overhaul, let your jib sheet fall
and we’ll put your boats to sea, brave boys
and we’ll put your boats to sea”
the boat fell o’er and the men aboard
and the whale was full in view
resolved, resolved was each whalerman bold
hard to steer where whalefish blew, brave boys
hard to steer where whalefish blew
we struck that whale and the line gave out
but she gave a plunder with her tail
and the boat capsized and four men were k!lled
and we never caught that whale, brave boys
and we never caught that whale
“to lose a whale,” our captain, he cried
“it grieves me four times o’er
but to lose four men of my gallant crew
aye, it grieves me ten times more, brave boys
aye, it grieves me ten times more”
“up anchor now”, the captain, he cried
“for the winter’s starting to appear
and it’s time we were leaving this cold country
and for england we will steer, brave boys
and for england we will steer”
greenland is a far*off land, a land that knows no green
where there’s ice and there’s snow and the whalefishes blow
and the daylight’s seldom seen, brave boys
and the daylight’s seldom seen
