|
Rocking through the night |
|
All is silent...southern cross |
|
It's easy for me to write |
|
Even though i wonder... |
|
But i feel nothing seems lost |
|
We're still full of hope |
|
Although the trip is grinding |
|
What can i say |
|
Remember how we talked about |
|
A world that's free |
|
It may be hard to find |
|
The land where war and hatred ceased to be |
|
And the ship is sailing on across the ocean |
|
We said farewell to yesterday |
|
But in a year and one more day |
|
You'll read the headlines everywhere |
|
About the daring messengers |
|
Who found an island in the sea |
|
Untouched by misery |
|
I'm wearing your bandanna |
|
Your picture's in my mind |
|
Well concealed |
|
And the vision of your face |
|
Is never far away no no |
|
It's always with me |
|
So your smile is my companian |
|
Till i'm back with you again |
|
We said farewell to yesterday |
|
But in a year and one more day |
|
You'll raed the news throughout the land |
|
About some new-age emigrants |
|
Who found an island in the sea |
|
Untouched by misery |
|
The ship sailed on...course: south-west, passing "cape harn" heading |
|
Far the pacific ocean... no storm no damage to its body could stop |
|
It on its way. . . but the destination was still so far away |
|
They had sailed for almost four months and four days... |
