Sarah Perfect Pirate Princess
Sarah perfect pirate Princess
Welcome to your shipboard home
Papa pirate holds and keeps you
Safely through the tidal foam
Mama pirate loves you dearly
But she died while giving birth
Flying fish are sent to greet you
Welcoming your time on Earth
Sarah, Princess, like your mother
Hair of gold and smooth as silk
All I have is love to give you
And this cup of Billy’s milk
You have plundered something in me
When you came and stole my heart
Gentle Princess, you’re my treasure
Only you can play that part
Sarah, Princess, dawn is rising
Dolphins ring our pirate ship
Whales rising in the wonder
Milky bubbles on your lip
All my mates are gathered ‘round us
Speaking words like coochy-coo
Never having seen a princess
Everyone’s in love with you
Sarah, Princess, tiny angel
Present of the brightest star
May thy fortune of forever
Safely keep you where you are
Though the land may call and tempt you
And each port may call your name
Don’t forget the ones who love you
As you navigate your fame
Sarah, Princess, pirate’s fortune
Is the purpose of our strife
You don’t need to seek your portion
Just to seek a better life
Precious baby, soft and sweetly
Beckoning with upturned eyes
You’re the glow of life within me
You’re the gift of my surprise
Sarah, Princess, Neptune’s daughter
Darling of the salty sea
May you learn to love the water
As you rule in majesty
When my sight is growing dimmer
And my sword is cast aside
Sarah, darling, my sweet Princess
May thy love for me abide!
