The Skull |
| Carried by restless winds |
| Under the crimson cloud |
| I sailed the purple waves |
| Aboard my comely ship |
| The ship was adorned with banners |
| With flags dedicated to its sails |
| A spirit summoned to its sails |
| Emblems painted with blood |
| The evening came, the night fell |
| The moon rose, circled the island |
| And all around me |
| The starry skies glittered in the water |
| I asked for his holy words |
| Besought his sage advice |
| I bowed to the skull of the bear |
| I prayed for the spirit of god |
| I asked for his holy words |
| And my heart began to sing |
| To the beat of the heavenly drum |
| And I prayed for the spirit of god |
| The ship it plotted my course |
| Evaded the rocks and shoals |
| It brought me to an island |
| On the shore of a sacred place |
| I climbed the side of the mountain |
| Made my way up, up the craggy slope |
| And on the top on a field of jagged rocks |
| I met a hallowed god |
| The wind it sang, the ship it rocked |
| White-crested waves they knew my course |
| As I fell to restless sleep |
| I wandered to a time that’s yet to come |
| I asked for his holy words |
| Besought his sage advice |
| I bowed to the skull of the bear |
| I prayed for the spirit of god |
| I asked for his holy words |
| And my heart began to sing |
| To the beat of the heavenly drum |
| And I prayed for the spirit of god |
| I met a hallowed god |
| I met a hallowed god |
| I met a hallowed god |
| I met a hallowed god |
