Letra de Herzogin Cecile

Sailing down the Baltic, where the wreck mark buoys all peal
Cruisin' down the Channel, where the steamers never yield
Beatin' down the Biscay, where the crew they get no meals
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Herzogin Cecile, Herzogin Cecile
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Rolling in the doldrums, where the slightest breeze she'll feel
Tackin' in the Tasman, where the winds upon her steal
Roarin' down the Forties, her braces sing like steel
There goes the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Herzogin Cecile, Herzogin Cecile
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Comin' down from Labrador, with a load of pine and deal
Off Tierra Del Fuego, where the albatrosses wheel
Runnin' eastward for the Horn, oh, hear her rigging squeal
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Herzogin Cecile, Herzogin Cecile
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Cruising Caribbean calms, where the flying fish appeal
Now she's Falmouth bound for orders, her passage time's reveal'd
A shipload strainin' in her hold, the pull again she'll feel
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Herzogin Cecile, Herzogin Cecile
She's the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
She's run upon the Bobtail, in the mist, a test of steel
She's hard aground in Sawmile Cove, the rocks have broken her keel
The deck planks of the Duchess, your feet will nevermore feel
She was the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Herzogin Cecile, Herzogin Cecile
She was the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
Herzogin Cecile, Herzogin Cecile
She was the mighty sailing ship the Herzogin Cecile
