Ancient Rites

Once there sailed the North Sea
The North Sea wide and cold
A ship heavily loaded
With the world's most precious gold
The enemy ship was floating
To steal our precious gold
Floating on the North Sea
Our North Sea wide and cold
Our youngest comrade, the bravest of us all
Volunteered to sink the boat loaded with gold
He jumped into the North Sea
Our North Sea, wide and cold
Our valiant friend, approached the ship's hold
With his fairest knife he gouged out a hole
Down! Down! And down! Down went the boat!!
Our valiant friend, approached the ship's hold
With his fairest knife he gouged out a hole
Down! Down went the boat!!!
North Sea! Swallowed by the waves
