Sunset and evening star
And one clear call for me
And may there be no meaning at the bar,
When I put out to sea.
Twilight and evening bell
And after that the dark,
And may there be no sadness or farewell
Whn I embark
For tho from out our bourne of time and place,
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar
