Mr. Rochester ( Michael Jayston) Singing the Corsair Song ( Jane Eyre, 1973)

The lyrics: My boat s by the tower, my barque s in the bay, And both must be gone ere the dawn of the day. The moon s in her shroud, but to guide thee afar, On the deck of the Daring s a lovelighted star. Then wake, lady, wake I am waiting for thee And this night or never my bride thou shalt be Then wake, lady, wake I am waiting for thee And this night or never my bride thou shalt be From a song entitled The Pirate s Serenade by William Kennedy
