[instrumental intro] [Verse 1] Beneath a sky that never weeps, The dune it sings, the silence speaks. My steps are lost in burning gold, But water whispers tales of old. [chorus] Fremens… in the breath of spice, we see our fate, we fight for life. In the deep desert, we hide in stones, We are Fedaykin, we stand our own. [instrumental break] [verse 2] The worms, they thunder deep below, Old gods in coils, ancient and slow. I call them forth with sacred beat, And ride the stars beneath my feet. [instrumental break] [chorus] Fremens… in the breath of spice, we see our fate, we fight for life. In the deep desert, we hide in stones, We are Fedaykin, we stand our own. [Bridge spoken/whispered] (Shai-Hulud… I pledge my breath, My flesh is dust, my vow is death. Water is life, the sietch runs deep, In folds of cloth, our secrets sleep.) [verse 3] Mirage and memory, visions blue, Eyes wide open, the dream comes true. I drink the spice, I see the line, I fade in sand—but the path is mine. [chorus] Fremens… in the breath of spice, we see our fate, we fight for life. In the deep desert, we hide in stones, We are Fedaykin, we stand our own. [instrumental outro] (Arrakis) (shaï-Hulud) (The Spice)
