Sails Of Silver letra

The maid in a garden walking alone
What is it makes her to weep and to mourn?
I am as the tall sailing ship out on the sea
Where only long breezes reach out to me

[Chorus:]
And I set my sails of silver
And I steer towards the sun
And you false love will weep for me
When I'm gone, when I'm gone, when I'm gone

The maid in a garden, how can it be?
My starring sea would but what does she see?
A mast of the tall rowan tree, ropes of fine silk
Decks holy stone shining whiter than milk

Chorus
