Hoist the Colors

Morning light on the horizon Time to sail our spirits risin' With the dawn our course devisin' Hoist the colors let them fly Hoist the colors bold and free Set the sails to destiny With the wind we'll rule the sea Pirates all beneath the sky Raise the flag the black is soaring Hear the call the crew's a-roaring To the waves our fate's imploring Adventure calls we can't deny Hoist the colors bold and free Set the sails to destiny With the wind we'll rule the sea Pirates all beneath the sky From the port we're swiftly leaving Hearts are strong our minds believing In the quest no time for grieving Treasure waits and so we fly Hoist the colors bold and free Set the sails to destiny With the wind we'll rule the sea Pirates all beneath the sky Compass points to lands unknown Where the tides and winds have blown Through the storm our path is shown With our flag against the sky Hoist the colors bold and free Set the sails to destiny With the wind we'll rule the sea Pirates all beneath the sky As we sail to distant reaches With the waves the sea beseeches To the world our mark it teaches Pirates all and none deny
