Russian Folk - The Gray Sea Is So Wide And Heavy lyrics

The gray sea's so wide and so heavy

High waves are around us my friend

And on the instructions of navy

We go far away of the land

Oh, comrade I cannot keep watch anymore

One stoker has said to his fellow

You see there's no flame in my chamber at all

I can't do a steam boiler well, oh

There's no any wind so it's hard to survive

The water is hot and it's stiffing

The temperature rises beyond forty-five

This stokehole is stopping my breathing

He threw the last bit and some water he drank

T'was dirty and desalinated

The sweat and the soot from his face slowly sank

As he heard the machinist stated

Hey, lad, you should go after finishing work

Mechanic is much disaffected

Of course if you're down you can go to a doc

He gives you a drug as directed

He went to the afterdeck loosing his mind

And stood there for some dizzy being

He saw for a moment a bright dazzling light

And fell with his heart no more beating

They came in the morning to tell him goodbye

His old-chaps all stokers and sailors

They brought him all scorched and rusty great-bar

A farewell gift to their fellow

So they took the bar and attached to his feet

An old ship priest came to this action

They turned his dead body with cotton bed-sheet

They cried - well, it's normal reaction

The ocean was silent and still at this time

And water just shines as a mirror

Superior's chief and the captain have come

A memory sang for the hero

Unneedfull an old-lady's waiting for son

They tell her - she'll cry like beluga

And wavering water continue to run

Their trace melts like purified sugar
