Farewell we call to the Aegean Sea
And with sails full of wind
Argo white ploughs the waves of
The deep, Ionian blue-green!
We saw the ancient shores that
Guard the dread automatons
The magic lands of Crete
Where royal monoliths stand high
With double-headed axes cleave the sky
Blood and salt, sweat and awe
To lands no man hath seen!
Nothing stops the Argonauts!
Ooooh!
Blood and salt, sweat and awe
To lands no man hath seen!
Nothing stops the Argonauts!
Ooooh!
To lands no man hath seen
To the shores of lake Tritonis
To lands no man hath seen
Beyond Istria and Propontis!
Bebrycian challenge dared insult the Argonauts
Polydeukes' iron fists put down the mountain-king!
Crossing hostile lands!
Man the oars, raise the sail!
Blood and salt, sweat and awe
Crossing hostile lands!
Nothing stops the Argonauts!
Man the oars, raise the sail!
Blood and salt, sweat and awe
Crossing hostile lands!
Nothing stops the Argonauts!
Man the oars, raise the sail!
And past the clashing rocks
Where black the waters churn
And foundered is the shore
Lord Apollo rides above
En route to Hyperborea
Harpies shriek a curse
As Phineus cries for help
A swarm of arrows raised
From Argo’s shielded prow
Blood and salt, sweat and awe
Crossing hostile lands!
Nothing stops the Argonauts!
Man the oars, raise the sail!
Blood and salt, sweat and awe
Crossing hostile lands!
Nothing stops the Argonauts!
Man the oars, raise the sail!
