Before me hangs a portrait, most unusual —
It calls me somewhere, softly summons me:
Into the cloudless blue it keeps on drawing,
It calls me far and high — it calls: "Be free!"
To spread my arms and soar so close to sunlight,
Where wondrous open space shines wild and bright,
While down on earth the fog lies low, unrolling —
A blanket veiling all things from our sight.

Short is my song! — I cannot tell it all!
And yet I think I've grasped the essence true:
To enter your vast world, so lone and boundless,
To stay there — and to share your path with you!

I look into your eyes and trust them wholly —
Believe me, eyes can never tell a lie.
They rule a bottomless universe, timeless,
Where time has ceased — where hearts beat from inside.
The surge of soul, the longing breaks all barriers,
It shatters them and clears the path with might,
So I may gaze into the distance with you —
Your eyes unveil for me the truth outright.

Short is my song! — I cannot tell it all!
And yet I think I've grasped the essence true:
To enter your vast world, so lone and boundless,
To stay there — and to share your path with you!

Behold — Atlantis rises up before us! You doubt it? It has shaken off the dust of ages past,
It gleams so bright in bluish mist and beckons — come on, then, shall we drop by? Won't this moment last?
Atlanteans here? Or maybe — the Others? Who lives beneath the deep where centuries are massed?
Who rules the souls of mortals, keeping tally — beyond all time, beyond all vector, vast?

Short is my song! — I cannot tell it all!
And yet I think I've grasped the essence true:
To enter your vast world, so lone and boundless,
To stay there — and to share your path with you!

To the summit of the world — the galaxy, the universe — beyond the horizon, ever on we make our way,
Behold the knight, the valiant warrior, triumphing — he races to his goal, the savior of souls astray!
Keeper of the ancient secret, time's own seal, he conquers all of it — the dark, the murk, the dread!
He drives it back into the abyss forever — savior of eternity, who lives on Saur.

Short is my song! — I cannot tell it all!
And yet I think I've grasped the essence true:
To enter your vast world, so lone and boundless,
To stay there — and to share your path with you!

A planet in a universe so distant that for centuries we'll never reach it — so far away,
Above it hang the sky, the sun, the same stars — one huge moon shines lonely over all astray.
Licking the blood off from their fangs, the Alves come racing — Who are they? What do they bring us? Doom? Death?
For ages they've been hiding here among us people! Who are we to them? Such easy quarry? Living food? Or mortal Sin?

Short is my song! — I cannot tell it all!
And yet I think I've grasped the essence true:
To enter your vast world, so lone and boundless,
To stay there — and to share your path with you!

I clutch your hand! Yes, I am frightened badly! But I'm with you — my Master! Not alone!
I know you'll lead me through the traps and snares, you'll show the path — to make it through alive!
Together we will walk the endless road across the universe — your world I'll view,
Where you, so fearless, will defeat them all — and once again will bring me home to you!

Short is my song! — I cannot tell it all!
And yet I think I've grasped the essence true:
To enter your vast world, so lone and boundless,
To stay there — and to share your path with you!
