Ten Thousand Years

Have you seen the jewels of Golgatha,
Shining brighter than the Stars of North?
Have you seen the vast deserts of Saba,
Piercing your heart like a glimpse of eternity?

Have you seen the ruins of Karnak,
And felt how great a man's mind can be?
Have you known that perfection is understanding,
And that to understand you only must love?

I have wandered the infinite forests,
And let the emerald green be a part of me.
I have fought the white wolves in winter,
And seen the sun go down in blood-reed snow.

I have climbed the high mountains of Tibet,
Where the beauty of nature hurts like agony.
I have been to the holy city of Jerech,
But all their Gods ment nothing to me!

My heart feels,
Like a cold block of stone.
My past is lost,
And my fire is broken.
The time I was free,
Is long forgotten!
But in every hill,
I still live!
