Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
The ship went went down in cold water
The band played on
Women and children float away
Nearer my God to Thee
The crew, the black gang
And men who made her
Nameless, gone, all gone
Cry out to the world
"We're going down"
"We're going down"
"We're going down"
ย
Dead sons, lost lovers
Fathers and brothers gone
Belfast, Southampton
Weeping, weeping women
ย
Over and over and over
ย
Ships of state, ships of fools
Lower the lifeboats
The rich sail away
Nearer to God are they
No power, no glory
Only hope remains
Swim to the star
Down, down in dark water
The show goes on
Cry out to the stars
"We're going down"
"We're going down"
"We're going down"
The stars listen
The stars listen
And drift away
