Lyrics:
''My boat's by the tower, my barque's in the bay,
And both must be gone ere the dawn of the day.
The moon's in her shroud, but to guide thee afar,
On the deck of the Daring's a love-lighted star.
Then wake, lady, wake! I am waiting for thee!
And this night or never my bride thou shalt be!
Then wake, lady, wake! I am waiting for thee!
And this night or never my bride thou shalt be!''
("The Pirate's Serenade'' - William Kennedy)
