Oh Captain! My Captain! - Walt Whitman (Powerful Life Poetry)

[Music] Oh captain my captain our fearful trip is done the ship has weathered every rack the prize we sought his won the port is near the bells I hear the people all exulting while follow eyes the steady keel the vessel grim and daring but all heart art art o the bleeding drops of red where on the deck my captain lies fallen cold and dead Oh captain my captain rise up and hear the bells rise up for you the flag is flung for you the bugle trills for you bouquets and ribbond wreaths or you the shores a-crowding or you they call the swaying mass their eager faces turning here captain dear father this arm beneath your head it is some dream that on the deck you've fallen cold and dead [Music] my captain does not answer his lips are pale and still my father does not feel my arm he has no pulse nor will the ship is anchor'd safe and sound its voyage closed and done from fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object one exult o shores and ring o bells but I with mournful tread walk the deck my captain lies fallen cold and dead [Music] you [Music]
