[00:02.79]Lord Franklin - Sinead O'Connor
[00:47.06]We were homeward bound one night on the deep
[00:55.44]Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep
[01:03.26]I dreamed a dream and I thought it true
[01:11.71]Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew
[01:25.31]
[01:27.68]With 100 seamen he sailed away
[01:34.86]To the frozen ocean in the month of May
[01:42.67]To seek a passage around the pole
[01:50.98]Where all poor sailors do sometimes go.
[02:05.53]
[02:08.59]Through cruel hardships they vainly strove
[02:16.33]Their ships on mountains of ice was drove
[02:23.88]Only the Eskimo with skin his canoe
[02:32.10]Was the only one that ever came through
[02:43.72]
[02:48.09]In Baffin's Bay where the whale fish blow
[02:56.00]The fate of Franklin no man may know
[03:03.24]The fate of Franklin no tongue can tell
[03:11.73]And Lord Franklin among his seamen do dwell
[03:26.64]
[04:08.87]And now my burden it gives me pain
[04:16.38]For my Lord Franklin I'd sail the main
[04:23.56]Ten thousand pounds I would freely give
[04:32.33]To know Lord Franklin, and where he is.
