Tekst piosenki

And it’s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Many hundreds more were drowned
Their herring craft and their trawlers
Their fishing smacks as well
Alone they fight the bitter night
And battle with the swell
Me thinks I see a host of craft
Spreading their sails alee
As down the Humber they do steer
Bound for the great North Sea
Me thinks I see a wee small craft
And crew with hearts so brave
They go to earn their daily bread
Upon the restless waves
And it’s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Many hundreds more were drowned
Their herring craft and their trawlers
Their fishing smacks as well
Alone they fight the bitter night
And battle with the swell
Me thinks I see them yet again
As they leave this land behind
Casting their nets into the sea
The herring shoals to find
Me thinks I see them yet again
And they’re safe on board alright
With their sails close reefed
Their decks washed clean
And their sidelights burning bright
And it’s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Many hundreds more were drowned
Their herring craft and their trawlers
Their fishing smacks as well
Alone they fight the bitter night
And battle with the swell
October’s night brought such a sight
'Twas never seen before
There were yards of masts and broken spars
Washed up upon the shore
There was many a heart of sorrow
There was many a heart so brave
There was many a true and noble lad
To find a watery grave
And it’s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Many hundreds more were drowned
Their herring craft and their trawlers
Their fishing smacks as well
Alone they fight the bitter night
And battle with the swell

And it ' s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Wiele setek utonęło.
Ich statki do śledzenia i trawlery
Ich rybackie smaki również

# As down the Humber they do steer #
Bound for the great North Sea
Me think I see a wee small craft
I załoga z tak odważnymi sercami
Idą zarabiać na chleb powszedni
Upon the restless waves
And it ' s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Wiele setek utonęło.

Wydaje mi się, że znów ich widzę.
Gdy opuszczają ten kraj za sobą

The herring shoals to find
Wydaje mi się, że znów ich widzę.
Na pokładzie są bezpieczni.

Ich pokłady były czyste.

Październikowa noc przyniosła taki widok
Nigdy wcześniej nie widziano
Znajdowały się tam m.in. maszty i połamane szprychy.
"Washed up upon the shore"
There was many a heart of sorrow
There was many a heart so brave
Było wielu prawdziwych i szlachetnych chłopców.
To find a waterery grave
And it ' s three score and ten boys and men
Were lost from Grimsby Town
From Yarmouth down to Scarborough
Wiele setek utonęło.
Ich statki do śledzenia i trawlery
Ich rybackie smaki również
