welcome me father on the North shores of Lapland welcome me father who knows no name welcome me mother the earth here is yawning my body is shaking for want of a flame down here got to laugh the kickback is ligtening drowning got to laugh this whole mess is frightening a follower of the pollen path the pollen path welcome me father the lava is rising welcome me mother and give me your name we've drunk from this wellspring too too long dividing the hours to measure the time we've lived with this heartache too too long numbering what's yours what's mine we've harbored this sadness so long nursing a voice just sing us our songs raising a voice to sing our songs
