Bilingual
Ferryman, ferryman
Carry my memory on
Out to the island
On the horizon
Following the path to the sun
Following the path to the sun
ย
Over the sandbar, holding the North Star
Steady between mast and spar
Creak of the oars and turn of the hours
Keeping watch for the power
Watch for the waves' breath, watch for the moon's death
Down in the waters of day
Ferryman, ferryman
Carry my memory on
Out to the island
On the horizon
Following the path for the sun
Following the path for the sun
ย
For the stone ones and broken, my sadness is woken
The sea roads are mistaken
So stand by the hail, with a shark for a sail
We grow weak and frail
And with arms made of granite, in a blaze of the gannets
We row off this planet
Ferryman, ferryman
Carry my memory on
Out to the island
On the horizon
Following the path to the sun
Following the path for the sun
ย
Following the path for the sun
ย
Ferryman, ferryman
Carry my memory on
Out to the island
On the horizon
Following the path to the sun
Following the path of the sun
