lirik lagu andy irvine - the dandenong
wild and furious blew the blast
and the sky with anger frowned
when the dandenong from melbourne sailed
to newcastle port was bound
she had eighty~three poor souls on board
through the storm she cleaved her way
and it’s sad to relate the terrible fate
‘twas just off jervis bay
and i long for you, i long for sleep
i dream of being warm
but through the night i have to sail
to brave this raging storm
while steaming through those angry seas
her propelling shaft gave way
and the waters they came rushing in
which filled them with dismay
all hands on board did all they could
till at length all hope was gone
and they hoisted a signal of distress
on board of the dandenong
it was not long until a barque
with a brisk and a lively crew
came bearing down and the captain cried
“we’ll see what we can do!”
came bearing down with might and main
in spite of wind and wave
they did all they could as sailors would
those precious lives to save
and i long for you, i long for sleep
i dream of being warm
i pray the sea will let me be
to brave another dawn
well some in boats they tried to reach
that kind and friendly barque
and numbers of their lives were saved
but the night came on pitch dark
what more could mortal man do then
when the storm increased so strong
and the rest now sleep in the briny deep
along with the dandenong
and i long for you, i long for sleep
i dream of coming home
tonight the sea it buries me
beneath this raging foam
