|
| Listen to the ways of humans |
|
| How they thrive on reckless chances, |
|
| Dynasty and heart's desire |
|
| Ride on slippers left at dances |
|
| For a narrow chance at freedom |
|
| Nothing is too good to stake |
|
| Grow your hair or spin your metal |
|
| Run with heros in your wake |
|
| Hear about the restless men |
|
| On the seas that know them best |
|
| Finding gold, seducing mermaids |
|
| Stealing rocs' eggs from their nests |
|
| Listen to the ways of humans |
|
| Fear not what now comes to you |
|
| Soon your spirit will go with them, |
|
| Reckless, rootless, sailing too. |
