It's time to grapple with the other ship,
Grant us good luck in battle, Jolly Roger!"

This is from a children's cartoon series "Adventures of Captain Vrungel"--whose name would translate to English as something like "Captain Liarsley"--yes, the captain was fond of tall tales...;) This is his first mate Lom re-taking the examination (the first mate has actually failed it in the navigational school, but as the captain needed a first mate in a hurry for the yacht race, he took the first mate on, on probation).

Sea Fever

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

(John Masefield)
