[Verse 1] The long wind falls into the slanting sun, A mournful song leaves many hearts undone. A scroll of the world, its tides and waves, Souls shattered—hooves thunder, resolute, unswayed. Burn away this lowly self of mine, Let me fall, silent, softly, into night. Bear one heart of blood, loyal and true— Hold on, hold on, and dawn will break through. [Verse 2] The long road home stretches afar, Solitude walks with quiet content. Once in a dream, through mist and years, I saw your face and felt you near. To say goodbye is also bliss— A gift that time will not dismiss. [Pre-Chorus] In that far and glorious hour, I was blessed to strike with all my power. I fear no floating clouds that blind my sight, Nor smoke and fire that shroud the night. [Chorus] Sing a life of loyalty, Praise the hero's mortal frame. Suddenly I turn and look back, My heart is clenched with pain, Hearing that mortal dirge again. [Bridge] A mournful song, A lifetime's partings and reunions, All become mountains and rivers. [Outro] A mournful song, A lifetime's partings and reunions, I lift my face and roar a song to the skies.
