COROMANDAL FISHERS

Page 8: Coromandal fishers

READ MERise, brothers, rise, the wakening skies pray to the morning light,The wind lies asleep in the arms of the draw like a child that has cried all nightCome, Let us gather our nets from the shore, andSet our catamarans free,To capture the leaping wealth of the tide, for

We are the sons of the seal.No longer delay, let us hasten away in the track of the seagull’s callThe sea is our mother, the cloud is our brother, the waves are our comrades all

Page 9: Coromandal fishers

What though we toss at the fall of the sun whereThe hard of the sea-god drives?He who holds the storm by the hair, will hide in his breast our lives.Sweet is the shade of the coconut glade and the silent of the mango grove,And sweet are the sands at the full o’ the moon with the sound of the voices we love.But sweeter, O brothers, the kiss of the spray and the dance of the wild foam’s glee;Row,brothers,row to the blue of the verge, wherethe low sky mates with the sea
