Red Sails In The Sunset

'Twas down where fisher folk gather,

I wander'd far from the throng

I heard a fisher girl singing

And this refrain was her song:

Red sails in the sunset

'Way out on the sea

Oh! carry my loved one

Home safely to me.

He sailed at the dawning

All day I've been blue

Red sails in the sunset

I'm trusting in you

Swift wings you must borrow

Make straight for the shore

We marry tomorrow

And he goes sailing no more.

Red sails in the sunset

'Way out on the sea

Oh! carry my loved one

Home safely to me.

Red sails, the night wind is blowing

And clouds are hiding the moon

Above no bright stars are glowing

It means the storm's coming soon.
