Song language: English
The Highest Gander |
| Overland, above the dark seas |
| Wild refugees flee the seasons |
| Drifting beyond the night clouds |
| In the wake of their guiding star |
| There he goes the famous gander |
| Eating fog, dancing with witches |
| There he goes, the famous old gander |
| Who longed to leave |
| If you hear the sound of our voices |
| Through the busy murmur of the Earth |
| You will know the meaning of our words |
| Praying for Spring to the ether |
| Night and day the travellers fly |
| Winter and Spring have their reasons |
| Sailing through sunrise and setting wild wind |
| And through steel blue air |
| Here he comes, the highest gander |
| Eating fog, dancing with witches |
| Here he comes the famous old gander |
| Who longed to leave |
| We don’t feel the warmth of your breath |
| Through the icy edges of the Earth |
| We don’t hear the rhythms of your call |
| Signalling the Spring in the ether |
