| [00:17.21] | Hear the rime of the Ancient Mariner |
| [00:19.87] | See his eye as he stops one of three |
| [00:22.23] | Mesmerises one of the wedding guests |
| [00:23.98] | Stay here and listen to the nightmares of the sea |
| [00:30.55] | And the music plays on, as the bride passes by |
| [00:32.21] | Caught by his spell and the Mariner tells his tale |
| [00:38.68] | Driven south to the land of snow and ice |
| [00:40.44] | To a place where nobody’s been |
| [00:43.38] | Through the snow fog flies on the albatross |
| [00:45.03] | Hailed in God’s name hoping good luck it brings |
| [00:51.49] | And the ship sails on, back to the north |
| [00:53.49] | Through the fog and ice and the albatross follows on |
| [01:24.87] | The mariner kills the bird of good omen |
| [01:29.45] | His shipmates cry against what he’s done |
| [01:33.34] | But when the fog clears, they justify him |
| [01:37.88] | And make themselves a part of the crime |
| [01:41.15] | Sailing on and on and North across the sea |
| [01:49.62] | Sailing on and on and North `til all is calm |
| [01:59.20] | The albatross begins with its vengeance |
| [02:03.19] | A terrible curse a thirst has begun |
| [02:07.56] | His shipmates blame bad luck on the Mariner |
| [02:11.54] | About his neck, the dead bird is hung |
| [02:15.09] | And the curse goes on and on and on at sea |
| [02:23.57] | And the thirst goes on and on for them and me |
| [02:32.55] | “Day after day, day after day we stuck nor breath nor motion |
| [02:36.92] | As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean |
| [02:40.71] | Water, water everywhere and all the boards did shrink |
| [02:45.17] | Water, water everywhere nor any drop to drink.” |
| [03:02.12] | There, calls the Mariner there comes a ship over the line |
| [03:07.64] | But how can she sail with no wind in her sails and no tide |
| [03:13.32] | See .....onward she comes |
| [03:18.24] | Onward she nears, out of the sun |
| [03:25.14] | See.... She has no crew |
| [03:30.39] | She has no life, wait but there’s two |
| [03:37.05] | Death and she life in Death |
| [03:38.32] | they throw their dice for the crew |
| [03:42.85] | She wins the Mariner and he belongs to her now |
| [03:48.61] | Then... crew one by one |
| [03:53.45] | They drop down dead, two hundred men |
| [04:00.28] | She...She, Life in Death |
| [04:05.68] | She lets him live, her chosen one |
| [04:37.18][06:19.69] | MUSIC |
| [05:52.40] | “One after one by the star dogged moon |
| [05:55.74] | too quick for groan or sigh |
| [05:58.87] | each turned his face with a ghastly pang |
| [06:02.81] | and cursed me with his eye |
| [06:06.47] | four times fifty living men |
| [06:09.46] | and I heard nor sigh nor groan |
| [06:12.42] | with heavy thump, a lifeless lump |
| [06:16.37] | they dropped down one by one" |
| [07:41.81] | The curse it lives on in their eyes |
| [07:46.25] | The Mariner he wished he’d die |
| [07:51.36] | Along with the sea creatures |
| [07:54.66] | But they lived on, so did he |
| [08:01.66] | And by the light of the moon |
| [08:06.19] | He prays for their beauty not doom |
| [08:10.89] | With heart he blesses them |
| [08:12.96] | God’s creatures all of them too |
| [08:21.35] | Then the spell starts to break |
| [08:25.95] | The albatross falls from his neck |
| [08:30.68] | Sinks down like lead into the sea |
| [08:35.48] | Then down in falls comes the rain |
| [08:38.48] | SOLO |
| [11:10.68] | Hear the groans of the long dead seamen |
| [11:12.11] | See them stir and they start to rise |
| [11:14.83] | Bodies lifted by good spirits |
| [11:16.72] | None of them speak and they’re lifeless in their eyes |
| [11:22.98] | And revenge is still sought, penance starts again |
| [11:24.87] | Cast into a trance and the nightmare carries on |
| [11:31.40] | Now the curse is finally lifted |
| [11:33.74] | And the Mariner sights his home |
| [11:35.88] | Spirits go from the long dead bodies |
| [11:37.99] | Form their own light and the Mariner’s left alone |
| [12:09.55] | And then a boat came sailing towards him |
| [12:14.06] | It was a joy he could not believe |
| [12:18.38] | The pilots boat, his son and the hermit |
| [12:22.52] | Penance of life will fall onto Him |
| [12:25.99] | And the ship sinks like lead into the sea |
| [12:34.45] | And the hermit shrieves the Mariner of his sins |
| [12:43.32] | The Mariner’s bound to tell of his story |
| [12:47.60] | To tell his tale wherever he goes |
| [12:52.17] | To teach God’s word by his own example |
| [12:56.19] | That we must love all things that God made |
| [12:59.53] | And the wedding guest’s a sad and wiser man |
| [13:08.22] | And the tale goes on and on and on |
