The Old Rover Lyrics - Mithotyn

I'm an old rover tired of this world 

let me follow the whirlpool of life 

into the world of happiness 

that lies on the other side of death. 

Grant me my deepest wish 

that I patiently yearn for. 

To wander the vales of solitude 

and to ride the sky on invisible wings. 

I will keep the spying hawk company 

and bleed with the dove in its claws. 

I will hunt with the wolfpack 

and share pain with the deer in their jaws. 

A tired and travelled old man I am, 

my mind is rich but my health is poor. 

Let me begin my final trip, 

my soul will fly free forever more.
