pentangle – lord franklin lyrics
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 one hundred seamen he sailed away
to the frozen ocean in the month of may
to seek a p-ssage around the pole
where we poor seamen do sometimes go.
through cruel hardships they mainly strove
their ship on mountains of ice was drove
only the eskimo with his skin canoe
was the only one that ever came through.
in baffin’s 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 i would freely give
to say on earth that my franklin do live.
