Daylight is on the sea!

Love, do not stay;

Land is no place for me,

I must away!

My bark is on the waves,

My boat ashore;

The surge its broadside laves,

While sleeps each oar.

CHORUS.

Daylight is on the sea,

Land is no place for me;

Come away, love, come away, love,

I dare no longer stay;

Come away, love, away, love,

I dare no longer stay.

Come away, away, away, away, away,

I dare no longer stay,

Away, away, away, away, away,

I dare no longer stay.

Daylight plays o’er the deep,

Like childhood’s smile;

Blue waves and hush’d winds sleep,

Enchain’d awhile!

My bark is on the waves,

My boat ashore,

The surge its broadside laves,

While sleeps each oar.

Daylight is on the sea, &c.
