Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
The path is clear though no eyes can see
The course laid down long before
And so with gods and men
The sheep remain inside their pen
Though many times they've seen the way to leave
There rise majestic past forms of men
Who care not or gaze with joy
To see reflected there
The trees, the sky, the lily fair
The scene of death is lying just below
The mountain cuts off the town from view
Like a cancer growth is removed by skill
Let it be revealed
A waterfall is mad rigour
An inland sea is sin for me
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And I know songs urge the sailors on
Deluded by the sirens' cry
ย
Now as the river dissolves in the sea
So Neptune has claimed another soul
And so with gods and men
The sheep remain inside their pen
Until the shepherd leads his flock away
The sands of time were eroded by
The river of constant change
