The New World

I circled the world in a point of time And I discovered the story Of Christopher Columbus’s lifetime You know, he was born in Italy in 1451? Young Chris sailed the seas as a felon Attacking the ships of Moors, But sadly his vessel was a sunken Luckily he knew how to swim ashore. Chris and his brother joined together, And then he married happily His wife’s father gave him registers That all positioned toward the Atlantic. Dreams for new lands were not far away Across the seas they would set sail To see worlds that would be new that day And bring news that would change humanity. First permissions were reject for the Indies Then loving eyes died shortly afterwards Leaving a son, so he sailed for the Spanish seas And once more nobility refused his traveling ideas. There was another wife and yet another child In the shadow of time were more denials His needs for finance seemed lost and wild When a priest put forward for his sake and won. Chris found his way together with his sons And three ships that set sail for the Indies Santa Maria flowed proudly in the setting sun The Pinta, and The Nina followed closely behind. The final voyage with vivid eyes showed the way In 1492 Columbus sailed to the Canaries, And the Sargasso Seas guided false passageway Mutiny, anger and violence almost ruined the trip. Alas the ideas of India and China came into view Though the Santa Maria sank into the sea The New World had been discovered by the few It is now time to go home and spread the great news. The journey has found a new world for the future And the human race will now circle the globe Ships will come and develop a land that is ever pure Together the new lands will stand fourth as one big world.
