Lyrics

I was born as all the world here was born
As tones, words and stories of the primeval song
I need no bow, I need no sword
My kingship's known to gods
Let their song go on
I need you to be the guide
The mirror to the sky and sea
Portray all above and below
The gate of life and death
The sea of my loneliness
It needs to have a sky
To go with my story
I also need to have your words
Like a king has his moon
A queen has her sun
To make the song go on
I need you to be the guide
The mirror to the sky and sea
Portray all above and below
The gate of life and death
I need you to be the guide
The mirror to the sky and sea
Portray all above and below
The gate of life and death
Make the song go on
The creator of gods
Make the song go on and on
On and on
I need you to be the guide
The mirror to the sky and sea
Portray all above and below
The gate of life and death
I need you to be the guide
The mirror to the sky and sea
Portray all above and below
The gate of life and death
Be my guide of life and death
