Sting - Blood red roses [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Our boots and clothes are all in pawn
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

And its flamin' drafty 'round Cape Horn
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

My dear old mother said to me
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
My dearest son, come home from sea
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

It's 'round Cape Horn we all must go
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
'Round Cape Horn in the frost and snow
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

You've got your advance, and to sea you'll go
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
To chase them whales through the frost and snow
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

It's 'round Cape Horn you've got to go
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
For that is where them whalefish blow
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

It's growl you may, but go you must
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
If you growl too much your head they'll bust
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Just one more pull and that will do
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
For we're the boys to kick her through
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down

Oh, ye pinks and posies
Go down, ye blood red roses, Go down
