Thousands of years I have seen the Moon Waxing and waning, vanish at days Weary and vexed I became all too soon Of men and his dull and trivial ways
The earth is too small for such as I The oceans are still and grey yet the sky
The heavens unrolled before my eyes Just like a scroll I could read from the skies No secret was kept, no story untold Knowledge I found in the deepest deeps
At mountains of ice Atop inky black seas No beauty unseen No dream left to dream
Dark fire, grim moons Cold forests, old doom
For life and death have whispered secretly To me in ancient runes of wisdom old And all that men has ever sought to learn No mystery left for me here to unfold
Let me pass away like a faint smoke flying by Immerse myself into voids where no dream has ever lived to die Vanish like the crests of the waves amidst the endless sea But I might live till the Sun grew cold and ceased to be
