Maassa kaukainen on
meri suuri ja niin rauhaton
on kai onneton
tyttö kaukana niin levoton
Ei koskaan hän saa
nähdä rakkaintaan sylissä maan
on aika taas
nostaa mies mennyt kunniaan
refrain:
Hän merimieheks syntyi
tuulta purjeissaan
ja syömmet naisien
hän hurmas laulullaan
on moni tyttö jäänyt häntä oottamaan
reissultansa palailemaan
Ei merimies voi maissa olla päivää kauempaa
kun jossain piru vie jo laiva odottaa
ei tyttö kauniskaan voi häntä kauaa omistaa
jostain uuden mies valloittaa
Laiva myrskyssä on
meri suuri ja niin rauhaton
on taas onneton
tyttö kaukana niin levoton
Laivan kannella soi
laulu viimeinen on aamun koi
jää itkemään
neito kaipauksen kyyneliäin
refrain (2x)
