Distress message to the Titanic:
Your voice I hear but you're not here Stop
Why is it so, I need to know Stop
Why do I long for your touch so much Stop
And why am I afraid to lose you when you were never mine Stop
Oh, rescue me to abide with thee Stop

Morse message from the Titanic:
Return to sender Stop Stop Stop


SS Titanic is sometimes (incorrectly) said to be the first
vessel to transmit an SOS Morse Code distress signal.
