Anchors Away
Hoist the sail
Let go the jib and mizenmast
Anchors away
It is to far off lands
We go, we seek
Let the sun shine
Upon the vessels deck
Steering forward
As dolphins race
Spraying salt upon our brow
There is a land
Many spoke of
Where trees and shore
Kiss the naked sky
Make haste, make haste
Let winds be strong
Behind our colorful sails
Speeding us upon waves
Toward the charted
Well anticipated shores
