Row, brothers, row to the edge of the verge, where the low sky mates with the sea
catamarans: boats with two floating hulls
held together by a flat deck
comrades: companions, especially people
having a common cause or purpose
toss: move from side to side or up and
down
cocoanul: coconut
spray: (hiere) the fine droplets caused by
water hitting a hard surface
verge: a piece of grass at the edge of
something
The wind lies asleep in the arms of the dawn like a child that has cried all night.
The sea is our mother, the cloud is our brother, the waves are our comrades all
What though we toss at the fall of the sun where the hand of the sea-god drives?
But sweeter, O brothers, the kiss of the spray and the dance of the wild foam's glee;
Rise, brothers, rise; the wakening skies pray to the morning light,
Come, let us gather our nets from the shore and set our catamarans free,
To capture the leaping wealth of the tide, for we are the kings of the sea!
No longer delay, let us hasten away in the track of the sea gull's call,
He who holds the storm by the hair, will hide in his breast our lives.
Sweet is the shade of the cocoanut glade, and the scent of the mango grove,
And sweet are the sands at the full o' the moon with the sound of the voices
we love;
