SEA FEVER
by John Masefield


I must go down to the seas again to the lonely sea and the sky
and all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by
and the wheels kick and the winds song and the white sails shaking
and a grey mist on the seas face and a grey dawn breaking

I must go down to the seas again for the call of the running tide
is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied
and all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying
and the flung spray and the blown spume  and the seagulls crying

I must go down to the seas again to two vagrant gypsy life
to the gulls way and the whales way where the winds like a whetted knife
and all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow rover
and quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long tricks over
