Lovely April day,

1
Lovely April day, Sailing from Lyttleton Bay
No problems at all
The Wahine's Terrible Fate
2
Entering Harbour, High winds whipped up
by Giselle, A wild cyclone
3
Radar quickly fails, The young ship is thrown
off Course Lost its way around
4
Struck by Barretts Reef, Six-hundred and ten
people Rushing off the boat
5
Lifeboats in chaos, Many passengers
lost Fifty-one lost souls...
