Into The West
dedicated to Cameron Duncan
Lay down,
your sweet and weary head.
Night is falling.
You have come to journeyʼs end.
Sleep now,and dream
of the ones who came before.
They are calling,
from across a distant shore.
Why do you weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see.
All of your fears will pass away.
Safe in my arms,
youʼre only sleeping.
What can you see,
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea,
a pale moon rises.
The ships have come,
to carry you home.
And all will turn,
to silver glass.
A light on the water.
All souls pass.
Hope fades,
Into the world of night.
Through shadows falling,
Out of memory and time.
Donʼt say,
We have come now to the end.
White shores are calling.
You and I will meet again.
And youʼll be here in my arms,
Just sleeping.
What can you see,
on the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea,
a pale moon rises.
The ships have come,
to carry you home.
And all will turn,
to silver glass.
A light on the water.
Grey ships pass
Into the West.
Τελικά ποτέ δε μπορώ να ακούσω αυτό το κομμάτι χωρίς να δακρύσω
Namárië! Nai hiruvalyë Valimar!
Nai elyë hiruva! Namárië!
