fiddler's green
-
denizcilik folklorunda fiddler's green bir nevi gemiciler cennetidir, gemi arkadaşlarının öldüklerinde buluştuğu yerdir. davy jones locker kavramının zıddı sayılabilir. aynı isimde dünyaca ünlü bir irlanda shanty'si de mevcuttur. sözleri de şöyledir:
as i walked by the dockside one evening so fair
to view the saltwater and take the salt air
i heard an old fisherman singing a song
take me away, boys, me time is not long
chorus:
wrap me up in me oilskins and blanket
no more on the docks i'll be seen
just tell me old shipmates, i'm taking a trip mates
i'll see you someday on fiddler's green
now fiddler's green is a place i've heard tell
where fishermen go, when they don't go to hell
where the skies are all clear and dolphins do play
and the cold coast of greenland is far, far away
chorus
where the skies are all clear and there's never a gale
and the fish jump on board with one swish of their tails
where you lie at your leisure, there's no work to do
and the skipper's below making tea for the crew
chorus
when you get back at home and the long trip is through
there's pubs and there's clubs and there's lassies there too
the girls are all pretty and the beer is all free
and there's bottles of rum growin' on every tree
chorus
now i don't want a harp or a halo, not me
just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea
i'll play me old squeeze box, as we sail along
with the wind in riggin' to sing me this song
