May the wind carry you,
Safe passage over troubled waters
Dark and bottomless too,
Stray from drowned and sunken martyrs
In all that you do

Set your sails to catch the breeze,
A vessel that will be propelled
A splash of spray to tease,
Breaking the waves where oft compelled
Sail now, upon my sea

Let my body carry you,
Underneath forever in the stars
Bright and eternal too,
Smooth the violence of troubled waters
If it’s the last thing we do

So come and begin the journey,
Promise not to sink in the swells
Of varying depths of me,
Where once I rose, and then fell
Come and sail upon my sea
