Lyrics:
The king and his men
Stole the queen from her bed
And bound her in her bones
The seas be ours
And by the powers
Where we will, we'll roam
Yo, ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Yo, ho, haul together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die
Some men have died
And some are alive
And others sail on the sea
- With the keys to the cage...
And the Devil to pay
We lay to Fiddler's Green!
The bell has been raised
From its watery grave...
Do you hear its sepulchral tone?
We are a call to all
Pay heed the squall
And turn your sail toward home!
Yo, ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die!

What is the song about Any back side story ???

@meganlodon 5 ай бұрын

@@khansolo.69 The song was written for _Pirates of the Caribbean 3_ to tell the tale of the goddess Calypso, Davy Jones, and the Pirate Court. Below is my analysis (I did this years ago). *The Chorus:* _Yo ho, haul together_ _Hoist the colors high_ _Heave ho, thieves and beggars_ _Never shall we die_ The chorus is sung numerous times within the song. It's basically telling the pirates, full of thieves and beggers, to get ready to set sail. The lyrics here are obvious in meaning. *First verse:* _The King and his men_ _stole the Queen from her bed_ _and bound her in her bones_ The King was the Pirate King at that time, and while his identity is unknown, I believe him to be Jones himself (my own little theory). The King's men refers to the Brethren Court. The Queen is Calypso, her bed is the sea, and binding her in her bones refers to binding her to her human form. _the seas be ours and by the powers_ _where we will we'll roam_ The seas literally belong to the pirates due to having power over Calypso. *Second verse:* _Now some have died_ _and some are alive_ _and others sail on sea_ This is a reference to the chorus of the song, which mention the pirates as thieves and beggars. This part of the verse is obvious in meaning. _with the keys to the cage_ _and the Devil to pay_ The "keys" to the cage are the nine Pieces of Eight, which were used to bind Calypso. The Devil refers to Davy Jones himself since he's the one that told the Brethren Court how to bind her; he's also a devil of sorts, or what I like to call, an ocean-bound Hades. _we lay to Fiddler's Green._ Fiddler's Green is an after-life of paradise for sailors where a fiddle never stops playing, but in the POTC universe, it is a tavern located in Davy Jones' locker. It might have a fiddle playing inside to fit the narrative. *Third verse:* _The bell has been raised_ _From it's watery grave..._ _Do you hear it's sepulchral tone?_ _A call to all_ _Pay head the squall_ _And turn your sails to home!_ This entire verse may refer to the scene of POTC where the pirates sing their song, and the Brethren Court is summoned to join together. A "all pirates unite" type of moment.

yall know the meaning of the song right? the meaning of the song is A dangerous song to be singing...for any who are ignorant of its meaning." The song Hoist the Colours told the tale of the binding of Calypso (Marilyn's real mother) by the Pirate King and the first Brethren Court. It was also used as the method of summoning the Court to stand together in the pirates' most dire need.

The Wellermen are just about the best group to perform this song. Just yesterday I received their CD and spent most of today listening to it. I thank you from the bottom of my soul you made it available. The Wellermen are without peer in acapella performing. Their harmony, vocal intonation and clarity of their voices are so superb it almost brings me to tears listening to them. They recorded a great selection of songs on the album, many I'd never heard before but will want to listen to again and again.

Under the steely gaze of the Northern Lights, the vast expanse unfurls. No gentle caress of waves here, but a churn of endless grey, a canvas whipped by howling winds. Icy fingers grip at the lone vessel, testing its resolve against the unrelenting surge. This is no playground for the faint of heart, but a proving ground for the leviathans of the deep. Here, behemoths clad in barnacles pierce the churning surface, their mournful calls echoing across the desolate expanse. Jagged cliffs, sentinels of ages past, stand defiant against the endless assault, their peaks shrouded in an ethereal mist. The very air vibrates with a raw, untamed energy, a constant challenge to those who dare enter its domain. Only the hardiest souls, the veterans forged in the crucible of a thousand storms, would dare navigate these unforgiving waters. Their vessels, testaments to generations of hard-won knowledge, creak and groan under the relentless assault, each creak a story etched in salt and spray. Yet, within their weathered hulls burns an unwavering determination, a spirit that mirrors the untamed wilderness they navigate. For those who seek solace in the familiar embrace of calm shores, this is a realm best left unexplored. But for those who yearn for a challenge that tests the very limits of their mettle, the Northern Sea beckons with a siren song, a promise of adventure etched in ice and brine. So raise your sails, brave hearts, and set course for the untamed north, for only there can true legends be forged.

When I was maybe 3 or 4 years old (74 years ago) I heard this song for the very first time. The only words I understood were, "Yo ho. All hands. Hoist tha ... tha" in a very deep male voice. After that, I hummed along as best I could. Even at that young age, to me it was a foreboding song that belonged to the horrors (sharks, giant squid, and otherwise ugly sea creatures) of the deep. When I was ten or so and would go fishing with my dad and something ominous would begin to happen, I would break out singing those few words I knew, and would continue humming. That's all I ever knew about the song until now. "Yo ho ..."
