I've wandered with the folk of the woods
Wisdom I've learned from the oldest one.
He said: "Do not fear me"
And led me to downwards
I saw big aperture in the ground
When he asked me a question
"Do you know what is this big hole in the ground,
Do you know the meaning of this?"
I wandered and wandered
'Cause I knew
If I won't know the answer
I'd never get a shaman drum
And personal ability
I wandered and wandered
'Cause I knew
If I won't know the answer
I'd never get a magic drum
And personal ability.
Oh, yes, this is the place, where you've get
Your spirit to your voice
We stepped through into the earth
And we walked to the river of witches.
The river flows two ways, I saw,
And the old man had a question:
"As you see the water flowing both ways
To the south and north
Do you know why?"
I wandered and wandered
'Cause I knew
If I won't know the answer
I'd never get a shaman drum
And personal ability
I wandered and wandered
'Cause I knew
If I won't know the answer
I'd never get a magic drum
And personal ability.
Then I saw old grey wolf, it came to me and whispered to my ear:
"The northern flow born from the water which dead has been bathed and the southeren flow born from the water which washed a new-born child."
Old man looked at me and the wolf, he said:
"Now you have the leader and the truth. When we go back home, you'll have your drum of your own and you'll know how to use it!"
