Integrity of construction, the best money could buy
 Her size greater than any, a Belfast shipyard's pride
 signal flags spelled out the word success
 for her maneuvering trials
 Preservers and lifeboats were not in excess
 Un-sinkable no plans to save lives
 Athinai reports icebergs and field ice
 At seven bells, ahead just five miles
 A black hulk against the night's darkness
 Disaster along the starboard side
 Full speed astern were the orders
 It would do them no good
 No apparent collision
 A rip deep below the waterline
 "Come at once we have struck a berg"
 Interference in transmission
 The newest, largest ship afloat
 Had two hours to live
 Lower all lifeboats which we have too few
 Women and children first
 Distress rockets filled the air
 Evacuation
 Sinking faster, every light ablaze
 Machinery, engines, crashing to the blow
 Arching vertical, stern points to the sky
 The great ship fracturing in two
 Watching their families, make it to safety
 Fifteen hundred went down
 The orchestra played to the last moments
 An eerie almost unreal sound
 The calm and ice North Atlantic
 Titanic's burial ground
