(MY JOLLY SAILOR BOLD-LULLABY-PIRATES-SONG)-

"Upon one summer's morning, I carefully did stray!
Down by the Walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay!
Conversing with a bouncing lass, who seemed to be in pain!
Saying William, when you go, I fear you will never return again!My heart is pierced by Cupid!
I disdain all glittering gold!
There is nothing can console me!
But my jolly sailor bold!His hair it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal!
My happiness attend him wherever he may go!
From Tower Hill to Blackwall, I'll wander, weep and moan!
All for my jolly sailor, until he sails home!My heart is pierced by Cupid!
I disdain all glittering gold!
There is nothing can console me!
But my jolly sailor bold!My name it is Maria, a merchant's daughter fair!
And I have left my parents, and three thousand pounds a year!
Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be!
Who love a jolly sailor that ploughs the raging sea!
While up aloft in storm, from me his absence mourn!
And firmly pray, arrive the day, he's never more to roam!My heart is pierced by Cupid!
I disdain all glittering gold!
There is nothing can console me!
But my jolly sailor bold!My heart is pierced by Cupid!
I disdain all glittering gold!
There is nothing can console me!
But, my jolly sailor bold!!..."

(A SIREN'S LULLABY-SONG)-

"Hear my voice beneath the sea!
Sleeping now so peacefully!
At the bottom of the sea!
Sleep for all eternity!Sailors live so restlessly!
Come with me, sleep peacefully!
Listen to this siren's song!
Worry not for nothing's wrong!Let my voice lead you this way!
I will not lead you astray!
Trust me as we reach the side!
Jumping out where men have died!Hear my voice beneath the sea!
Sleeping now so peacefully!
At the bottom of the sea!
Sleep for all eternity!Let the ocean fill your lungs!
Struggle not, soon peace will come!
Taking in your final breath!
Sink down to the ocean's depths!"I wish I could always be!
In the ocean's arms, you see!"
He who'd wanted nothing more!
Sleeps now at the ocean floor!Ocean was your lover's name!
You had loved her all the same!
Now you'll always be together!
Sirens are so very clever!Hear my voice beneath the sea!
Sleeping now so peacefully!
At the bottom of the sea!
Sleep for all eternity!!..."
