The vessel rocks, a hesitant sway,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.
The vessel rocks, a hesitant sway,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.

A restless heart, ensnared by desire's hold,
A restless heart, ensnared by desire's hold,
At every step, sin's dark dwelling unfolds,
At every step, sin's dark dwelling unfolds,
Preserve my honor, my protector bold,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.
The vessel rocks, a hesitant sway,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.

Darkness descends, on every side,
Darkness descends, on every side,
Without you, where can my solace reside?
Without you, where can my solace reside?
Hold my hand, play your flute, my guide,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.
The vessel rocks, a hesitant sway,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.

Devotees call to you with hymns of praise,
Devotees call to you with hymns of praise,
I seek to please with tear-filled gaze,
I seek to please with tear-filled gaze,
Lift up the fallen, in your loving ways,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.
The vessel rocks, a hesitant sway,
Only if you reach the shore, then I know, oh helmsman, the way.
