I'm on a roll (night before a festival). This one's also from George Herbert (see Good Old Brig).
ALBERTINA (pump shanty)
They are building a ship in the haven
Albertina, they will call her when she's done
CHORUS: Pump away
Albertina, she will serve us, Albertina will preserve us,
Albertina, they will call her when she's done,
Pump away
They say that she lays waiting in the harbor
To take us all around the horn
Ch: Pump away
Albertina, she will serve us Albertina, will preserve us
To take us all around the horn
They say that she lays waiting at anchor
To take us o'er the bounding main
Ch: 3rd line repeats - To take us o'er the bounding main
They say that she is ready in the harbor
She's loaded down with golden ale & wine
Ch:
They say that there's a sailor's grave a waiting
Beneath the ocean deep & blue
Another one that I believe is from the Northern Europe-Baltic-Scandinavian trades, where the sail-cargo industry was still going strong up to the start of WWII. I know the Albertina is already in the DT, but this version's different & English, rather than a translation. Barry
