[ti:Warrior and Man]
[ar:Carved in Stone]
[al:Hear the Voice]
[00:11.41] Still I hear the old song,
[00:13.30] it is sung by the birds and the leaves in the trees.
[00:18.66] It is sung by the wind,
[00:20.50] by the thunder and rain, by the waves in the seas.
[00:26.59] It is sung by the merfolk, by gnomes and by dwarves,
[00:33.49] in the rivers and mountains so deep;
[00:40.44] it is sung by the fairies that dance in the woods,
[00:47.80] it is sung where the unicorns sleep.
[00:55.97] When the world was still young
[00:57.78] and the weak race of man still had hearts true and proud,
[01:03.02] Man did fight side by side
[01:04.82] with the folk of the woods as an invincible crowd.
[01:10.62] As a frightening army they rode through the mist,
[01:17.16] with their weapon and shield by their side;
[01:24.21] and the warrior's song all the swordsmen did sing
[01:31.01] as the black army rode in the night.
[01:39.79] But the race of man's weak
[01:41.38] and it started to fight only for money and fame;
[01:46.72] While the folk of the woods
[01:48.67] fought for justice and truth, not for man's greed and shame.
[01:54.79] Thus the elves turned their back on man's insanity
[02:01.33] and the old friendship came to an end;
[02:08.16] and the warrior's song was forgotten by man,
[02:14.96] who to gold and injustice did bend.
[03:07.67] But I still hear the song
[03:09.39] which is sung by the birds and the leaves in the trees,
[03:15.16] which is sung by the merfolk,
[03:17.11] by gnomes and by fairies in the mountains and seas.
[03:23.12] And as long as my heart beats this song will be there,
[03:30.00] for I know that the warriors still ride.
[03:36.91] Yes, the race of man's weak, but a few still remember
[03:44.28] the old words of honour and pride.
[03:50.85] Yes, the race of man's weak, but a few still remember
[03:58.41] the old words of honour and pride.
