“Silver Adventures”- Captain Joshua Slane –15NO19- ‘The Captain’s farewell…’
⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵
"Should old acquaintances be forgotten
An’ never be remembered?
Should old acquaintances be forgotten
an’ days long ago.
Fer days long ago, my dear,
Fer days long ago
We'll drink a cup o’ kindness yet
Fer days long ago!
An’ surely you'll have your pint tankard
An’ surely I'll have mine.
An’ we'll drink a cup o’ kindness yet
Fer days long ago.
We two have run aboot th’ hills
An’ pulled th’ daisies fine
But we've wandered many a weary mile
Since th’ days long ago.
We two have paddled in th’ stream
From mornin’ sun till dinner-time
But th’ broad seas have roared between us
Since th’ days long ago.
An’ here's my hand, my trusty friend,
An’ give me your hand too,
An’ we will take an excellent good-will drink
For th’ days o’ long ago…"
