[Ebm] [Eb]
Hero's face was gaunt and tanned, His sail was set in [Db] search of land, His life, out solely by him, Man was guided by the [Eb] tide.
Heroine mocked each he wight, She beckoned like some [Db] saviour bright, She pranked sailors in the night, Were they to welcome to her [Ebm] sight?
[Db]
[Ebm]
Well, [Ab] one man slashed Mashuri, Cease the irresistible, White-faced, lent Hero in search of the peace Which she alone could offer.
Thus he knelt before her feet, Where he [A] lest her eyes should meet, He knew his life was [C] in conflict, For he had [Fm] yet to suffer.

[Ebm] Enticing herring, So found good Hero, From divine [Db] young, And that she meant no harm, But Hero's the [Ebm] saviour, Hero could no longer think,
Realising [Db] he was weak, His life increasingly complete, For all but a [Eb] slave to him.
