A Prophet In The Forest
Like gold fall the leaves in the wind Long years numberless, as the wings of the trees The long years have passed into the west Beneath the blue vaults, wherein the stars tremble In the song of the wind From the forests and the green mountains far to the east To the hills of Franconia, dreaming in peace See the fields full with grain, shining like gold in the sun Oh land of my youth and old age As the Danube rolls slowly to the seas of the east Tall keeps of Bohemia are guarding the Reich Land of proud halls Where legends resound in the night Oh, land of once and forevermore Through years of longing we march From here to the end of the world I lead my folk to the gate Where past and today become one Through years of longing we march, as seasons pass us by Relentless in our stride, we enter the mountainside Standing stones guard the tombs Of our fathers long gone Letras de cancionesUnd the oaks, proud like titans defying the sun Telling the tale of the days when our folk still was young And took these lands as ours I remember the time, I remember the place I remember the woods, where I first saw her face Now the winds from the east strike fear in our hearts Lost are the days of our youth as we part Oh, Upper-Palatinate! Where have you gone? Once proud were our ways Now all barren hills lie covered in shades Our past but a dream, no stars light us home Through years of longing we march From here to the end of the world I lead my folk to the gate Where past and today become one Through years of longing we march, as seasons pass us by Relentless in our stride, We enter the mountainside When winter comes, the winter wold That hill and wood shall slay When trees shall fall and starless night Devour the sunless day When wind is in the deadly east, then in the bitter rain I'll look for thee and call to thee I'll come to thee again! When winter comes and singing ends When darkness falls at last When broken is the Golden Bough And light and labour past; I'll look for thee and wait for thee, until we meet again Together we will take the road beneath the bitter rain! Together we will take the road that leads into the west. And far away we will find a land Where both our hearts may rest. From Letras Mania
