To the Mountains

We were called tonight by grey gulls once again
From most far, coldest north they came
We will join this ride, there and back again
Into the dark through wind and rain
It has been way more than many years ago:
Last time we fought side by side
It will be a triumphal reunion
When the two of us unite
Our fear yields excitement
We are one million mates, so I
Will surely stand my ground tonight
To the mountains and beyond
Through oceans and skies
And then to the other side
Off to the mountains and beyond
Through woods in blackened nights
Off to the mountains we will ride
Gathering
Tonight we will forgive our sins
We rove, we wander, and we roam
Don’t hurt our pride
No, you should better step aside
As we are surely marching on
Our fear yields excitement
We are one million mates, so I
Will surely stand my ground tonight
To the mountains and beyond
Through oceans and skies
And then to the other side
Off to the mountains and beyond
Through woods in blackened nights
Off to the mountains we will ride
To the mountains side
Then to the other side
Off to the mountains side
Then to the other side
Our fear yields excitement
We are one million mates, so I
Will surely stand my ground tonight
And if I’d be falling
I’d surely hear a calling
To meet my gods on the other side
To the mountains and beyond
Through oceans and skies
And then to the other side
Off to the mountains and beyond
Through woods in blackened nights
Off to the mountains we will ride
