Under the waves

The captain cranked the wheel around
Upon the hearing of a sound
That grew from faint to rumbling
Beneath his ship, he heard her sing

The shadow dark beneath the waves
Flitting in and out of caves
Her skin was gleaming green and gold
Her splendor, tales had not foretold

The sailors leaned over the rail
And caught a glimpse of shining tail
Their hearts beat faster as they saw
Her golden eyes, her beauty raw

Her cherry lips began to part
Again releasing divine art
Vibrations from her melodies
Brought the sailors to their knees
