Oh my Captain , my Captain Where is the gleam in your eye ? Where is that sting Whenever your colors fly Where is that thirst For adventure you sail Where is that booming voice Through oak will drive nail Oh , my Captain Where could you be Thy gaze crosses More than the sea Where is the man Who knows not any fears Who's cheated death All these long years Come Captain Where is thy cheer We sail into eternity The rest is unclear Oh my Captain , my Captain Why such a sad soul It's treasure and loot So much we have stole Oh Master , my master We are and can no more be Like the birds We are free as long as we breathe Come Captain , my Captain Give us command Give ,"Aweigh all anchors." Seek ye new harbors with warm golden sand

Oh My Captain
Oh my Captain , my Captain Where is the gleam in your eye ? Where is that sting Whenever your colors fly Where is that thirst For adventure you sail Where is that booming voice Through oak will drive nail Oh , my Captain Where could you be Thy gaze crosses More than the sea Where is the man Who knows not any fears Who's cheated death All these long years Come Captain Where is thy cheer We sail into eternity The rest is unclear Oh my Captain , my Captain Why such a sad soul It's treasure and loot So much we have stole Oh Master , my master We are and can no more be Like the birds We are free as long as we breathe Come Captain , my Captain Give us command Give ,"Aweigh all anchors." Seek ye new harbors with warm golden sand
