Sailing Lullaby

POEMS ABOUT ANGER > Sailing Lullaby—SONG Lyrics
​

SAILING LULLABY

Once there was a sailor who sailed around the world.
And he was very happy ust sailing on his boat.
Always when the night came and skies were turning dark,
​He sat outside and he played his pipe a sailing lullaby. 

One day he met a lady who said, "It just can't be!
​One cannot be so happy just sailing on the sea.
I'll take you to my castle and give you all you need." 
But he only smiled as he played his pipe a sailing lullaby. 

The lady got quite angry that he turned her offer down. 
She tossed his pipe in a water, but yet it didn't drown. 
​The wave then brought his pipe back and suddenly turned around.
And as anger goes right back to its source, the wave knocked the lady down.  
​The sailor smiled and he played his pipe a sailing lullaby. 
​

Sailing Lullaby Music Video

I'd like to share with you a music video for "Sailing Lullaby". You can hear me singing together with my sons when they were little and see me playing my blue guitar. When my sons grew older, we made this video together. My middle son, Adrian, became a filmmaker, which definitely helped! We used a mix of live-action and Lego stop-motion animation. To watch on YouTube, click HERE or on the picture below.
