Adrift! A little boat adrift! And night is coming down! Will no one guide a little boat Unto the nearest town?
So Sailors say-on yesterday- Just as the dusk was brown One little boat gave up its strife And gurgled down and down.
So angels say-on yesterday- Just as the dawn was red One little boat-o'erspent with gales- Retrimmed its masts-redecked its sails- And shot-exultant on!
