My father fare thee well
Far across the sea may you dwell
Now the weight of your throne
Rests upon me alone
My father how I ache
And victorious yet I quake
Oh how many words I regret
While I live I won't forget
Gone the night and dawns the day
Waters cover up pale faces
Of the warriors who lay
In echoes of voices
Lost amongst the stones
Dead marshes will keep your souls
Leaving us to face a new age
On our own
My friends I fare thee well
I'll remember where you fell
Everything that you gave
Our kindred for to save
My brother how I ache
Your screams keep me awake
Yet the sacrifice and the pain
Feel so cruel and in vain
Gone the night and dawns the day
Waters cover up pale faces
Of the warriors who lay
In echoes of voices
Lost amongst the stones
Dead marshes will keep your souls
Leaving us to face a new age
On our own
My lover fare thee well
For such sorrow you'll never quell
Your touch I cannot bear
As I sink in despair
My lover how I ache
I leave you though my soul does break
If one day this guilt I erase
I'll return to your embrace
Gone the night and dawns the day
When we sail away from this land
And the soft sea spray
Will greet us on new strands
On this shining isle
Far away from grief and strife
May our hearts be whole, may we find
A new life
