I will travel the Ocean Sea Riding the currents On the roads of salt water Where you meet sailors and traders I am tired of firmland I want to stand on a deck I will travel the Ocean Sea Plucking the petals off the Windrose Cold wind from the Ocean Sea On the lousy harbour taverns On the cranes and the warehouses And on the street vendors On the Indian and Chinese cooks On the masters and the dealers Cold wind from the Ocean Sea May it clean hearts and minds
