[The Captain] The sea is deep and blue No shallow waters are in sight And hearts should be so light North winds sing Tell us of an unknown coast We've gone southernmost to glorify the king
We have raised his coat of arms Wherever we have landed Our dreams of foreign shores were flying high Now, a victim of democracy am I
No one has ever sailed so far from home The one who wishes to go on is me alone Turning back feels like I'd leave a child behind Oh fate be kind
We passed a raving storm That left us all in mortal fear So why are we still here? Don't you see Don't you see this tempting chance Reaching India and other lands by sea
[The Crew's Choir] So distant Horizons Behind them Doom is waiting Two more days We will sail If this fails We'll be turning
