Intro

with piano):

Verse 1

A day's light told me, of my son's fate

the sun showed the way, grim and severe

pulled under the raging, waters my child

sank in the drowning, currents my son,

BRIDGE, w/ *Riff 1

My Son.....

Verse 2

My strength is not enough, my powers failed me

I need the heavens help, I ask for thunder's force

I plead for you oh lightning, forge an iron tool

a magic rake of dragging, a river for my son

BRIDGE, w/ *Riff 1

My Son...

CHORUS

God of fire bring your light

forger of sun, help me now

Guardian of the shore will sleep,

In your warmth..

Lull the folk of cold water,

banish the serpents of the dark.

To the river, let me go

and fetch my son away

INTRO, w/ *Riff 2

Verse iii

A rake made of iron, from the Gods of skies

the spirit of bright days, sent me the sun

Cold troops of Tuoni, cannot stand in my way

untouched I shall walk by the river of the night

BRIDGE, w/ "solo riff"

CHORUS

God of fire bring your light

forger of sun, help me now

Guardian of the shore will sleep,

In your warmth..

Lull the folk of cold water,

banish the serpents of the dark.

To the river, let me go

and fetch my son away
