High rolling waves Give away and break For great beasts Embodied with steel Across the vast black sea A formation of death
High sea fleet and grand fleet Heading for a battle so certain Thousands of men at arms With bravery towards glory or doom
Here standing on deck On the dreadnoughts and cruisers With all of the heart filled with fear Yet strife and determination Here with the stain of the sea on skin Standing pale and grim To clash and crash them down The pitch black grave
The horizon seem so distant and dark As the wind chills me to the bone How many shall die of us that are here now I must stand the test of battle
High rolling waves Give away and break For great beasts Embodied with steel Across the vast black sea A formation of death
Here standing on deck On the dreadnoughts and cruisers With all of the heart filled with fear Yet strife and determination Here with the stain of the sea on skin Standing pale and grim To clash and crash them down The pitch black grave
