The poem describes pirates singing a song about hoisting their colors high as thieves and beggars who will never die. They reference stealing the queen from her bed and binding her in her bones, some pirates being alive while others are dead or sailing the seas to Fiddler's Green with keys to a cage and the devil to pay. The bell from a watery grave calls all to pay heed to the squall and turn sails toward home.
