Sailors Lullaby / Sea Shanties

SEA SHANTIES – Original Music Series SAILORS LULLABY My heart's caught in misery, Waves of sorrow, gentle sea. Lonely nights and stars above, Far from shore and far from love. In dreams, I see their faces clear, Silent prayers, they hold me near. Sun fades with the evening's calling, In my heart, they're always here. My soul longs for my country, Where my loved ones wait for me. Through storms into bright light, Steadfast, I will homeward fight. My heart's caught in misery, Waves of sorrow, gentle sea. Lonely nights and stars above, Far from shore and far from love. Days grow long and shadows creep, Memories are mine to keep. Whispers on the ocean's crest, Speak of home, where I find rest. My heart longs for the home shore, Where my loved ones wait once more. Through the tempests, wild and grand, Steadfast, I will homeward stand. Journey's end, the anchor's near, Voices I hold dear I hear. Homebound, at last, my journey ends, In my arms, my family and friends. © 2026 Ali Hamdi Gökmenoğlu. All Rights Reserved.
