A SEA-SONG FROM THE SHORE
James Whitcomb Riley
Hail! Ho!
Sail! Ho!
Ahoy ! Ahoy ! Ahoy !
Who calls to me,
So far at sea?
Only a little boy!
Sail! Ho!
Hail! Ho!
The sailor he sails the sea;
I wish he would capture
A little sea-horse
And send him home to me.
I wish, as he sails
Through the tropical gales.
He would catch me a sea-bird, too.
With its silver wings
And the song it sings.
And its breast of down and dew!
I wish he would catch me a
Little mermaid.
Some island where he lands.
With her dripping curls,
And her crown of pearls.
And the looking-glass in her hands!
