The archaic traveller I've touched the sky Followed the universal steps Far beyond mortal understanding I've danced with elementary powers At the nameless meadow up high I've tasted wisdom I've tasted pain For a great eternity I've existed The eternal spectator The archaic traveller The equilibrium unbalanced Behold the wrath of gods The fury of the elements Vortex of cosmic chaos
The archaic traveller I've seen planets being born From the supreme primal chaos I've sailed the storming rivers of time Since the beginning To these times of the ends But mortal remember that: Rooms are small in Tuonela Underground chambers narrow No moonbeams, no sunshine Desolate may your life's morning be But more desolate the d**h's evening
