Rudderless Boat

Rudderless boat afloat on sea wide and far,

Bobbing up and down on waves placid.

Mighty waves pushing it night and day

Reaching nowhere, going nowhere.

Rudderless boat afloat on sea wide and far,

Although alone, helped along

Rising sun awakening a new day.

Setting sun revealing stars hidden.

Rudderless boat afloat on sea wide and far,

Polaris directing to the distant north,

Rising sun promising a new beginning in the east.

Setting sun calling along to the beautiful west,

Rudderless boat afloat on sea wide and far,

Set sail and steer, stars and wind will help,

Going is tough as strong waves push away,

But land is not far as it seems.
