Well, I'm on a Thalassan seastrider;
And I'm cruising through Dardanos Bay.
I have charted the course to Orilla
With a stop by The Tears on the way.
Took on twenty silk in Colchis, night before -
Can't make a living deepsea fishing anymore.
Sold all my pieces long before I left my home;
Too proud to quit I worked my fingers to the bone
So I could own my Thalassan seastrider:
Two ballistas locked down on the decks.
There are monsters patrolling the canyons,
There are chests full of gold in the wrecks.

Now I sail my Thalassan seastrider
More and more at the dawn of the year,
Since they tell me the kraken has surfaced
And I'm still in control of my fear.
I got a crew to feed and tokens in the hold,
Store the wardiscs, top the strongbox up with gold.
They say these waters aren't what they used to be,
But when the wind blows then I know that I am free.
So if you see my Thalassan seastrider
In the waves off the Zanzibaar shore,
Just tell Casov I'll bring him a trophy
When I can't mend the sails anymore.
