Lord Franklin

演唱者:Martin Carthy

专辑:Essential

    作曲 : Carthy Martin

    It was homeward bound one night on the deep,

    Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep.

    I dreamed a dream and I thought it true

    Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew.

    With a hundred seamen he sailed away

    To the frozen ocean in the month of May

    To seek that passage around the pole

    Where we poor sailors do sometimes go.

    Through cruel hardships these men did go

    His ship on mountains of ice was drove

    Where the Eskimo in his skin canoe

    Was the only one who ever came through

    In Baffin Bay where the whale fish blow

    The fate of Franklin no man may know.

    The fate of Franklin no tongue can tell,

    Lord Franklin along with his sailors do dwell.

    And now my burden it gives me pain,

    For my long lost Franklin I'd cross the main.

    Ten thousand pounds would I freely give

    To know on earth that my Franklin do live.
