Eisen Ladies (Sung to the tune of "Spanish Ladies")
[Verse 1]
Farewell and adieu to you Eisen’s ladies
Farewell and adieu to you, ladies so fair
For we've received orders for to sail for our riches
But we hope in a short time to find treasure rare
We’ll range and we’ll roam like true Eisen sailors
We’ll range and we’ll roam all on the salt seas
Until we strike sounding in the shores of the sapphire
From Patlov to Eisen be thirty five leagues
We hove our ship to with the wind from sou'west, boys
We hove our ship to, deep soundings to take;
'Twas forty-five fathoms, with a white sandy bottom
So we squared our main yard and up channel did make
We’ll range and we’ll roam like true Eisen sailors
We’ll range and we’ll roam all on the salt seas
Until we strike sounding in the shores of the sapphire
From Patlov to Eisen be thirty five leagues
[Verse 3]
The first land we sighted rose up from tall Vesten
Lake Kolben and Algard emptying into the blue
We sailed by the forests into Kalevalah
And then we bore north for the Southern Moors light
We’ll range and we’ll roam like true Eisen sailors
We’ll range and we’ll roam all on the salt seas
Until we strike sounding in the shores of the sapphire
From Patlov to Eisen be thirty five leagues
Then the signal was made for the grand fleet to anchor
And all in the Moors that night for to lie;
Let go your shank painter, let go your cat stopper
Haul up your clewgarnets, let tacks and sheets fly!
We’ll range and we’ll roam like true Eisen sailors
We’ll range and we’ll roam all on the salt seas
Until we strike sounding in the shores of the sapphire
From Patlov to Eisen be thirty five leagues
[Verse 5]
Now let ev'ry one drink off his full bumper
And let ev'ry one drink off his full bowl;
We'll drink and be jolly and drown melancholy
And here's to the health of each true-hearted soul
We’ll range and we’ll roam like true Eisen sailors
We’ll range and we’ll roam all on the salt seas
Until we strike sounding in the shores of the sapphire
From Patlov to Eisen be thirty five leagues
