quando começa parece ser apenas mais uma canção irlandesa, mas ouvindo a melodia (belíssima de tão simples) e seguindo a letra acabamos por içar âncora, desfraldar velas e abandonar o nosso porto.
depois, quando damos por isso, passámos por mares nunca dantes navegados…
we're sailing on a strange boat
heading for a strange shore
we're sailing on a strange boat
heading for a strange shore
carrying the strangest cargo
that was ever hauled aboard
we're sailing on a strange sea
blown by a strange wind
we're sailing on a strange sea
blown by a strange wind
carrying the strangest crew
that ever sailed
we're riding in a strange car
we're followin' a strange star
we're climbing on the strangest ladder
that was ever there to climb
we're living in a strange time
working for a strange goal
we're living in a strange time
working for a strange goal
we're turning flesh and body
into soul
