To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
to ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
To work in the service of life and living
in search of the answers of questions unknown
To be part of the movement and part of the growing
part of beginning to understand
Aye Calypso the places you’ve been to
the things that you’ve shown us
the stories you tell
Aye Calypso I sing to your spirit
the men who have served you so long and so well
Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh
oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee
doo-dle ay ee
Like the dolphin who guides you, you bring us beside you
To light up the darkness and show us the way
For though we are strangers in your silent world
To live on the land we must learn from the sea
To be true as the tide and free as a wind swell
Joyful and loving in letting it be
Aye Calypso the places you’ve been to,
the things that you’ve shown us,
the stories you tell
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit,
the men who have served you so long and so well
Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh
oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee
doo-dle ay ee
he dee Ay-ee
Hi dee oh ooo
hi dee ayee
hi dee oh ooo
