am
On the ocean O he,
G
waves in motion, Oho
am
Not but clouds could we see
C am
o'er the blue sky below
Island looming O he,
in the gloaming, Oho
Our ship's compass set we,
and our lights we did show.
Chorus:
am G
Leis a lurighan O he, leis a lurighan Oho,
am C am
in the grey dark of evening, o'er the waves let us go.
Aros passing, O he,
was harassing, Oho,
The proud billow to see,
high as mastheads to flow
Captain hollers, O he,
to his fellows, Oho,
Those whom courage would flee,
let them go down below,
Chorus...
In the tempest, O he,
waves were crashing, Oho,
And the cry of the sea
as the cold wind did blow.
Captain hollers, O he,
to his fellows, Oho,
Those who won't stand with me,
let them go down below.
Chorus...
