Give me no port,
On the twilight coast.

To us no landing
Is given.

For hell stays Cap'n's hands,
But we shall not stop going.

The Flying Dutchman,
Scion of the abyss.

Peace to none we shall eternal give,
Rest to none of those who live.

We sail the briny seas,
Within the great keys.

But we are fallen,
Never to go back.

The Dutchman's crew,
The Dutchman's crew.

Out of which the storms will brew,
On waters lonely.

But let us rejoice!
Fill hell with our voice!

For we still ride,
Though we can not make port!

We make war on the lands,
And endless row.

Drums beating,
Whips lashing.

On our galley broken,
The Flying Dutchman true.

Ooh, that's really good, Witch King. Really dark and evil. :bones:

Cool Witch King!!! It was very driving and dark, giving me the impression of a dark sea. I liked the verse, "We sail the briny seas/Within the great keys"

Have you ever read the book by Brian Jaques called "Castaways of the Flying Dutchman"? You might like it.

The theme for Davy Jones is rather moving....

(hence the poem)
