I was homeward bound one night on the deep
Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep
I dreamed a dream and I thought it true
Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew

With a hundred seamen he sailed away
O’er frozen oceans in the month of May
To seek a passage around the pole
Where we poor seamen must sometimes go

Through cruel hardships they mainly strove
Their ship on mountains of ice was drove
Only the Eskimo with his skin canoe
Was the only one that ever came through



In Baffin’s Bay where the whale fishes blow
The fate of Franklin no man may know
The fate of Franklin no tongue can tell
Lord Franklin alone with his sailors does dwell

And now my body it gives me pain
For my long lost Franklin I would cross the main
Ten thousand pounds I would freely give
To know on earth that my Franklin does live
