Shanty for the Arethusa Lyrics

	作曲 : Meloy
	We set to sail on a packet full of spice, rum and tea leaves
	We've emptied out all the bars and the bowery hotels
	Tell your daughters do not walk the streets alone, tonight
	Tell your daughters do not walk the streets alone, tonight
	To tell the tale of the
	Jewess and the mandarin
	Chinese boy
	He led her down from her gilded canopy of cloth
	And through her blindfold, she could make out the figures there before her
	And how the air was thick with incense, cardamom and myrrh
	So goodnight boys, goodnight
	Say goodnight boys, goodnight
	We set to sail on the clipper that's bound for
	South Australia
	The weather's warm there, the natives are dark and nubile
	But if you listen, quiet, you can hear the footsteps on the cross trees
	The ghosts of sailors passed, their spectral bodies clinging to the shrouds
	So goodnight boys, goodnight
	Say goodnight boys, goodnight
