Shine! Shine! Shine! Pour down your warmth, great sun! While we bask -- we two together. Two together! Winds blow South or winds blow North, Day come white, or night come black, Home or rivers and mountains from home, Singing all [the]1 time, minding no time, While we two keep together.

?. Sea slant [sung text not yet checked]
Language: English
On up the sea slant, On up the horizon, This ship limps. The bone of her nose fog-gray, The heart of her sea-strong, She came a long way, She goes a long way. On up the horizon, On up the sea-slant, She limps sea-strong, fog-gray. She is a green-lit night gray. She comes and goes in sea fog. Up the horizon slant she limps.
Text Authorship:
- by Carl Sandburg (1878 - 1967), "Sea slant", appears in Slabs of the Sunburnt West, first published 1922
