Երգի խոսքեր
[Տուն 1] The compass keeps its little pull While dawn unthreads the gray I’ve crossed the wide pacific blue And watched the charts give way A deckhand’s tale in every port A different name to learn But when the north stars gather close My thoughts make their return [Նախաքնարերգ] I tell the constellations What the salt wind cannot say [Կրկներգ] Carry my voice where the trade winds run Tell them i’m counting the miles till i’m home I’ve seen the world turn silver beneath the moon Still i hear my children laughing through the wind And i keep that sound wherever i roam [Տուն 2] There was a harbor made of bells And gulls above the quay A storm that bent the mast like grass Then passed by break of day I learned the names of distant stars From an old navigator’s hand Yet every shining point above Still leads me back to land [Նախաքնարերգ] I tell the constellations How their voices cross the sea [Կրկներգ] Carry my voice where the trade winds run Tell them i’m counting the miles till i’m home I’ve seen the world turn silver beneath the moon Still i hear my children laughing through the wind And i keep that sound wherever i roam [Կամուրջ] When the watch is done, i’ll set my boots ashore Let the tide keep all the miles i’ve known I’ll sit with them and hear that wild refrain No far horizon ever sang it the same [Final chorus] Carry my voice where the trade winds run Tell them i’m coming, the long miles nearly done I’ve seen the world turn silver beneath the moon Still i hear my children laughing through the wind And soon i’ll be there, where that laughter began [Ելք] Keep laughing, little ones, i’m sailing home Your voices ride the wind wherever i roam
