'Once be my home,
the ship
Once be my world,
the water
Once be my life,
the voyage
Once be my heart,
the crew
And once be my eyes,
the captain
For I belong at sea,
Condemned for eternity
to a watery grave
So long as the tides
rise the ship higher
And so long as the waves
crash against her hull
I shall guide
all those at sea
Through the water
that I own
Whether they be swimmer
or sailor
Captain
or crew
Wanderer
or adventurer
Friend
or foe
I shall be with them
until their journey ends
Be it violent
or calm
But always by my will
For I am
the Master of the Sea'
