Lyrics:

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve spent a fortnight on the sea. Ebb and flow oh ebb and flow! We’re used to ground that’s wobbly and many a sunset’s glow.

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve transported shipments to ports. Back and forth oh back and forth! Our arms are stronger than forts. Oh we sail from south to north!

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve seen the merfolk with our eyes. North to south oh north to south! The red shark is no surprise with its jagged tooth-filled mouth.

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve seen the vorays glow by night. Bright and dull oh bright and dull! The beams of its eerie light reflect off the sails and hull.

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve seen the demons patrol the seas. West to east oh west to east! In our sails we caught the breeze to avoid the demons’ feast.

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve seen the shadow-ships sail by With crimson masts, oh crimson masts! Pointing sharply to the sky, bound under Shadow-Cast.

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!

We’ve seen the feast of every port. Dance and sing oh dance and sing! We’ve tasted ale of all sort, even Trarven’s sour flavouring.

Chorus: May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon! (x2) Sure as the hue of the tall plumes, let us reach the harbour soon! May the tides flow smooth under the crimson moon!
