The moon's full rays hit across the bay, Will the ship make it to shore? No way! The ship is about ready to sink, There are rocky pebbles, islands, and coasts on either side; The sinking ship no more doth glide!
The sky is black clouds across the black sky and moon make everything look creepy, The sinking ship hits a rock and moaneth creakily, There are rocks and rocky islands on either side, They that are in the ship are trapped inside!
There's no way around the rocks and islands, Nothing but silence. Will this be the moon's last ray? No wonder people call this place Silent Bay!
The bird skims across the shivering water's way, Silence. . . The Silent Bay!
