The Wahine
Wahine
The Wahine
Wahine
The Wahine
Ooh she ran aground
Wahine
The Wahine
Wahine
Fierce Giselle
She took you down
In the Wellington Harbour
A vessel full of life
No other ferry larger
No greater cause of strife
She was born for the ocean
Harsh seas are where she cut her teeth
Cap'n couldn't see it coming
The sharp rocks of the Barrett Reef
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Ooh she ran aground
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Fierce Giselle
She took you down
The wind whipped and tore
Across a white horse covered sea
The people on the shore
Watched on helplessly
A silence filled the night
A death toll of 53
We remember those who died
In our worst maritime tragedy
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Ooh she ran aground
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Fierce Giselle
She took you down
The Wahine
Wahine
The Wahine
Ooh she ran aground
Wahine
The Wahine
Wahine
Fierce Giselle
She took you down
In the Wellington Harbour
A vessel full of life
No other ferry larger
No greater cause of strife
She was born for the ocean
Harsh seas are where she cut her teeth
Cap'n couldn't see it coming
The sharp rocks of the Barrett Reef
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Ooh she ran aground
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Fierce Giselle
She took you down
The wind whipped and tore
Across a white horse covered sea
The people on the shore
Watched on helplessly
A silence filled the night
A death toll of 53
We remember those who died
In our worst maritime tragedy
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Ooh she ran aground
Wahine
Wahine
Wahine
Fierce Giselle
She took you down
