NOW I WENT OUT TO SEEK NEW WORLDS 
 TO TELL PEOPLE MY STORY
 AND I TRAVELLED SO VERY FAR FOR GOLD AND FOR GLORY
 AND YOU’RE WITH ME IN EVERY WORD IN EVERY THOUGHT 
 AND I’M WITH YOU, MY LOVE 
 AND YOU SENT ME THOSE MANY BLESSINGS 
 STRONGER THAN THOUSAND SHIPS OF WAR 

 FEEL LIKE THE EARTH IN THESE COLD WINTER DAYS 
 LEFT FOR WHILE WITHOUT THE SUN’S LIFE-GIVING RAYS 
 BUT IT’S ONLY MATTER OF TIME 
 AND THOUGH WAR CONQUERS KINGS 
 SEEMS [bad word] THE EARTH AND EARTHLY THINGS
  AND WAR MIGHT SWALLOW ME
  IT HAS NOT POISONNED THEE

 AND YOU’RE WITH ME IN EVERY WORD IN EVERY THOUGHT
 AND I’M WITH YOU, MY LOVE
 IT’S HARD TO LEAVE THE PURPOSE I SO LONG HAD SOUGHT
 IT’S HARD TO LEAVE ON SHIP OF WAR
 IT’S HARD TO LEAVE YOU, DEAR
