We are an ancient tree
With fresh blossoms
Towards the sun we stretch
Forward to grow
Listen!
Far down in the root and in the cycles of years
Chant the old
Listen!
Far down in the root and in the cycles of years
In the bark lay wounds
They attest of honor
They attest of misdeed
Some hurt more than others
Look deep into
my eyes so blue
You must understand
Remember that all people
will in future leave
The Night it will come
I give you your heritage
If you want
It will not leave
Heavy it weighs
Remember, do not take more than you can carry
Deep in the earth
Roots give you direction
When storms rage
The creaking
Chants
Look deep into
my eyes so blue
You must understand
Remember that all people
will in future leave
The Night it will come
I give you your heritage
If you want
It will not leave
Heavy it weighs
Remember, do not take more than you can carry
For every sprout
We become taller and deeper
For every sprout
We become taller and deeper
