Lyrics Serenade Of The Last Wolf - Hagalaz' Runedance

Serenade Of The Last Wolf

He runs into the night
Finding a place to hide;
Why do they hunt him again?
His heart, it beats so fast;
No sound, they moved on at last
Timidly he wanders his way
The outcast, he enters their town
Senseless hate haunts him now;
The outcast with more feeling then they’ll ever know
He only came for some food
Maybe even company;
Sometimes he feels so alone
He is the last one of his kind
All his companions have died;
Man signed their fatal destiny
His dreams tell him of ancient times
Of wolves and men running side by side;
How delightful freedom must have been
Wild woman’s mate and totem-beast
Idolized he was, but suddenly all changed;
When the men with false dogmas came
You call him the evil beast?
But you are the real evil beast!
You, who damned nature’s dearest child
He cries his sorrow to the moon
A tear shines through the misty gloom
Can’t you hear the last wolf’s serenade?
They came wild and free
Life in it’s livery
Stealing life from the land’s living
Alone he sits by the lake
His image in the lake his only friend
Can’t you hear the last wolf’s serenade?
Can’t you hear the last wolf’s serenade?
