Luyện nghe bài hát The Ship In Distress

The Ship in
You seamen bold that the ocean,
What landsmen do never know.
The sun over old England's nation;
No tongue can tell you go through.
Through bitter in the height of battle,
Now you well what I do say,
thund'ring cannons loudly rattle
There's no back to run away.
Of a merchant there was a captain;
A time they bad been drove on sea.
The weather proved to so uncertain,
brought them to extremity.
Nothing on board souls to nourish,
Nor to their feeble arms;
The whole ship's crew nearly starving,
The men nothing but skin and bone.
The cats and dogs how did eat them,
proving to them severe;
Captain and men of one
They all of them went shares.
At length, at length the came on them,
The came on them most bitterly.
Poor fellows all titter totter,
lots which of them should die.
The lot was on one poor fellow
had a wife at home on shore,
But to think of eating our fellow
It was that grieved us ten times more.
'l am willing to die,'this man answered,
But to the topmast away,
For some help you may discover
While I unto the do pray.'
The captain said he spied a
About a from us or more,
Some signals of distress were
And for us away she bore.
And soon we got plenty,
And far from all such fear,
To see pity they took upon us
You could not but shed a tear.
But now happy in old England
And far from all deadly fear,
We'll drink unto our wives and
And all we love so dear.
May God protect all sailors
And all plough the raging main;
May they never see no more such
And never the like again.
From Oxford Book of Sea Songs,
Somewhat different version recorded by Killen, 40 to 40
