Seven Widows Weep

Seven sailors from the north

Set their sails for the isle of Rott

Then their heading turns southwest

For adventure and conquest

Seven sailors head southwest as the wind

fills their sails

On a journey across the North Sea for

adventure and conquest

And the sirens sing from every shear

as the northern seamen are drawing near

How they sing

How they bring the North men closer in

They approach the ship

Clinging on to its rim

The sirens cling on to their ship

The sailors seem to lose their grip

Enchanted by the sirens song

Mesmerized they go along

Seven sirens of North Sea put the

seamen to their rest

Ended their journey across the North Sea

for adventure and conquest

And the sirens sang from every shear

as the Northern seamen were drawing near

How they sang, how they clang on

to the drowning men

The seven sailors will never return again.

Their ship went down

East of the United Kingdom

Now their seven widows weep

The seamen veiled in endless sleep

Come sleep with me, I’ll set you free

come dream with me

at the bottom of the North Sea.
