Lyrics

(Folk song)

1. Out of my window, looking in the night,
I can see the barges’ flickering light.
Silently flows the river to the sea,
And the barges, too, go silently.

Refrain
Barges, I would like to go with you,
I would like to sail the ocean blue.
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?

2. Out of my window, looking in the night,
I can see the barges’ flickering light.
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red,
You can see them flickering far ahead. Refrain
