The sea was rough and the wind grew wild
A father he said to his only child
Through-fare my boy you go down below
Through-fare my boy we are sailing now
Fare, fare is the ocean it knows your fear
Father by your right hand I'll steer
And merrily over the green waves we'll ride 
We will ride together my father and I 
We will ride together 
My father and I 

Mother will stand by the shore and pray
She'll watch for us dear father at the dawn of day
And when at last her prayers they are done 
She'll be first to catch sight of our sails in the morning sun
Up cried the father brief and stern 
Tomorrow she'll see our boat return 
And merrily over the green waves we'll ride 
We will ride together my father and i 
We will ride together 
My father and I

Watching and waiting but never more
Will those gallant sailors return to shore
For the knotted black handkerchief lies on the sand
It was tied there by his parting hand
And all that of that sailor remains
Is the compass they never will use again
For now that we know on the Jasper sea
He will fly together his father and he
They will fly together his father and he
For now that we know...
Learned from the singing of Jumbo Brightwell
