Lord Franklin文本歌词

作曲 : Carthy Martin

It was homeward bound one night on the deep,

Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep.

I dreamed a dream and I thought it true

Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew.

With a hundred seamen he sailed away

To the frozen ocean in the month of May

To seek that passage around the pole

Where we poor sailors do sometimes go.

Through cruel hardships these men did go

His ship on mountains of ice was drove

Where the Eskimo in his skin canoe

Was the only one who ever came through

In Baffin Bay where the whale fish blow

The fate of Franklin no man may know.

The fate of Franklin no tongue can tell,

Lord Franklin along with his sailors do dwell.

And now my burden it gives me pain,

For my long lost Franklin I'd cross the main.

Ten thousand pounds would I freely give

To know on earth that my Franklin do live.
