A Sea Symphony (Symphony No. 1): I. A Song for All Seas， All Ships歌词完整版
Behold the sea itself
And on its limitless heaving breast the ships
See where their white sails bellying in the wind speckle the green and blue
See the steamers coming and going steaming in or out of port
See dusky and undulating the long pennants of smoke
Book XIXSea-DriftSong for All Seas All Ships
Today a rude brief recitative
Of ships sailing the seas each with its special flag or ship-signal
Of dashing spray and the winds piping and blowing
And out of these a chant for the sailors of all nations
Fitful like a surge
Of sea-captains young or old and the mates and of all intrepid sailors
Of the few very choice taciturn whom fate can never surprise nor death disMay
Pick'd sparingly without noise by thee old ocean chosen by thee
Thou sea that pickest and cullest the race in time and unitest nations
Suckled by thee old husky nurse embodying thee
Indomitable untamed as thee
Flaunt out O sea your separate flags of nations
Flaunt out visible as ever the various ship-signals
But do you reserve especially for yourself and for the soul of man one flag above all the rest
A spiritual woven signal for all nations emblem of man elate above death
Token of all brave captains and all intrepid sailors and mates
And all that went down doing their duty
Reminiscent of them twined from all intrepid captains young or old
A pennant universal subtly waving all time o'er all brave sailors
All seas all ships
