Round the world and home again
That's the sailor's way
Faster faster, faster faster
There's no earthly way of knowing
Which direction we are going
There's no knowing where we're rowing
Or which way the river's flowing
Is it raining, is it snowing
Is a hurricane a–blowing
Not a speck of light is showing
So the danger must be growing
Are the fires of Hell a–glowing
Is the grisly reaper mowing
Yes, the danger must be growing
For the rowers keep on rowing
And they're certainly not showing
Any signs that they are slowing.
You surely know how to wrote, I like each and every poem of yours
Through the static, I pick up the important words, ' keep on rowing'. The rhyme scheme is very contrived, artificial.

I would like to translate this poem
Out of breath after this trip of a poem...
