"Weigh the anchor and hoist the sails!* | |
Work harder you drunken snails! | |
For treasury like pepper as gold. | |
Let this nautical voyage begin. | |
We are powered by strong European winds." | |
The triumph of The United Dutch East-India Company. | |
We run a monopoly: spice trade, violence and slavery | |
"Full speed ahead!" | |
He's hollering as if he's mad. | |
This ship is captained by a successful psychopath. | |
Fearless… No conscience… | |
The infamous captain Van Der Decken. | |
So obsessed to be the best. Nothing less. | |
A crude master yet staunch, | |
Refusing to back away from and kind of tumult. | |
For mace, nutmeg, clove and cinnamon. | |
For silk, porcelain, ivory and opium. | |
Victoriously sails the VOC | |
Through the foulest gales, along dangerous reefs and | |
Treacherous bays. Respect and obedience. | |
Under his command they felt challenged but safe. | |
Determination and greed is what he felt. | |
Possessed and focused on profit and wealth. | |
"Weigh the anchor and hoist the sails! | |
Work harder you drunken snails! | |
For treasury like pepper as gold. | |
Let this nautical voyage begin. | |
We are powered by strong European winds." | |
"Bring me the rum | |
To celebrate the fortunes to come. | |
Let us sing and drink on a rich and glorious time. | |
For we shall succeed just like this harmonious rhyme." |
