The Visitor

Brother, oh brother! I saw such strangeness
A man, a creature of unearthly kindness
Such stories he told, such places
Fates and fights and the future’s dangers

My sister, wherever have you been
Why the fever, what claim you have seen?
This is senseless, a rambling daydream
End the riddles, mind what Elders tell us

Strange creatures fly between the world
Neither ghosts nor mortal spirits
Kind or malicious, we do not know
Maybe this is what you witnessed

But the hour seems unreal
He told me to leave, he told me to follow
With him to other fields beyond
Beyond the ones I ever will know

Stranger in these dull fields
Would surely not go unnoticed
Poor girl, you must have dreamed him
In your lonely moments

Had you left with him, had you followed
Where would we have found you?
Fallen dead at the end
But with a smile on your face

Strange creatures fly between the world
Neither ghosts nor mortal spirits
Kind or malicious, we do not know
I know what I have witnessed

But the hour seems unreal
He asked me to leave and I will follow
With him to other fields beyond
Beyond the ones I ever will

Come full Moon, I shall leave and follow
Blessed or cursed by him, true or shallow
Seeker of truth, may your courage lead me
Bringer of light, wait for me, your light I shall see

Cry not for me, for I must go

Strange creatures fly between the world
Neither ghosts nor mortal spirits
Kind or malicious, we do not know
Maybe this is what you witnessed

But the hour seems unreal
He asked me to leave, he asked me to follow
With him to other fields beyond
Beyond the ones I ever will know

Strange creatures fly between the world
Neither ghosts nor mortal spirits
Kind or malicious, we do not know
I know what I have witnessed

But the hour seems unreal
He asked me to leave and I will follow
With him to other fields beyond
Beyond the ones I ever will know
