Volga Flow [Orinoco Flow - Medieval sea shanty]

Let me sail, let me sail

Let the Volga river flow.

Let me reach, let me beach

On the shores of Tripoli.

Let me sail, let me sail

Let me crash upon thy shore.

Let me reach, let me beach

Far beyond the Baltic Sea.

Sail away, sail away, sail away,

Sail away, sail away, sail away, (hey!)

Sail away, sail away, sail away, (hey!)

Sail away, sail away, sail away.

From Calais to Marseilles, in the shade of Avalon,

From Bari to Tiree and to Thessaloniki.

From Milan to Sidon hear the power of Babylon,

From Paris to Dundee, far beneath the Celtic Sea.

Sail away, sail away, sail away,

Sail away, sail away, sail away, (hey!)

Sail away, sail away, sail away, (hey!)

Sail away, sail away, sail away.

From the North to the South

Ebudae into Khartoum.

From the deep sea of clouds

To the island of the moon.

Carry me on the waves

To lands I have never been.

Carry me on the waves

To lands I have never seen.

We can sail, we can sail

With the Volga river flow.

We can sail, we can sail

Sail away, Sail away, Sail away!

We can steer, we can near

With my hands upon the oar.

We can sigh, say goodbye

To the life we knew before.

We can sail, we can sail

Sail away, Sail away, Sail away!

We can reach, we can beach

On the shores of Tripoli.

We can sail, we can sail

Sail away, Sail away, Sail away!

From Paris to Dundee, far beneath the Celtic Sea

We can sail, we can sail

Sail away, sail away, sail away,

Sail away, sail away, sail away, (hey!)

Sail away, sail away, sail away, (hey!)

Sail away, sail away, sail away!
