One by one the pale stars die before the day now,
One by one the great ships are stirring from their sleep,
Cables all are rumbling, anchors all a-weigh now,
Now the fleet's a fleet again, gliding towards the deep.


One by one the pale stars die before the day now,<br>
''Now the fleet's a fleet again, bound upon the old ways,
One by one the great ships are stirring from their sleep,<br>
''Splendour of the past comes shining in the spray:
Cables all are rumbling, anchors all a-weigh now,<br>
''Admirals of old time, bring us on the bold ways!
Now the fleet's a fleet again, gliding towards the deep.<br>
''Souls of all the sea-dogs, lead the line to-day!


''Now the fleet's a fleet again, bound upon the old ways,<br>
Far away behind us town and tower are dwindling,
''Splendour of the past comes shining in the spray:<br>
Home becomes a fair dream faded long ago;
''Admirals of old time, bring us on the bold ways!<br>
Infinitely glorious the height of heaven is kindling,
''Souls of all the sea-dogs, lead the line to-day!<br>
Infinitely desolate the shoreless sea below.


Far away behind us town and tower are dwindling,<br>
''Now the fleet's a fleet again, etc.
Home becomes a fair dream faded long ago;<br>
Infinitely glorious the height of heaven is kindling,<br>
Infinitely desolate the shoreless sea below.<br>
 
''Now the fleet's a fleet again, etc.<br>


Once again with proud hearts we make the old surrender,<br>
Once again with proud hearts we make the old surrender,
Once again with high hearts serve the age to be,<br>
Once again with high hearts serve the age to be,
Not for us the warm life of Earth, secure and tender,<br>
Not for us the warm life of Earth, secure and tender,
Ours the eternal wandering and warfare of the sea.<br>
Ours the eternal wandering and warfare of the sea.


''Now the fleet's a fleet again, etc.
''Now the fleet's a fleet again, etc.

One by one the pale stars die before the day now,
One by one the great ships are stirring from their sleep,
Cables all are rumbling, anchors all a-weigh now,
Now the fleet's a fleet again, gliding towards the deep.

Now the fleet's a fleet again, bound upon the old ways,
Splendour of the past comes shining in the spray:
Admirals of old time, bring us on the bold ways!
Souls of all the sea-dogs, lead the line to-day!

Far away behind us town and tower are dwindling,
Home becomes a fair dream faded long ago;
Infinitely glorious the height of heaven is kindling,
Infinitely desolate the shoreless sea below.

Now the fleet's a fleet again, etc.

Once again with proud hearts we make the old surrender,
Once again with high hearts serve the age to be,
Not for us the warm life of Earth, secure and tender,
Ours the eternal wandering and warfare of the sea.

Now the fleet's a fleet again, etc.
