One Eyed Old Man - Lyrics by Bathory


Lyrics
O yee one eyed old man.
You who see it all
You who see the past and all to be
Say,yee one eyed old man.
For I need to know
Tell me which path fate has chosen for me
Say does the Northstar still shine on me
Say will I set my loved ones free
O yee one eyed old man.
Of yee our elders told
You have been since land and sky was one
And if you really knows all that will be,tell me
What the future wants with this young no one
`s son
Say does the Northstar still shine on me
What fo you see in store for mee......."
Questions,questions.
Many you askabout the future and some of the past.
Few hav seen what I see,fewer still will ever know.I gave an eye to see a betterand you thirst fo knowlenge grows.
But you,my chld,who treads the road of pain.
Who have felt such anger.
Such that bears no name.
Thee shall I nurse as if you were my own son.
And this very night your training will already have begun.
For I have seen you come for a thousand years or so.
And the gods have told me to teach you all that
I possess and know.
And hough me eye no longer seesmy hand held out in front of me,I sill gaze crystal clear at allthat moral man cannot see.
And I see you riding up on a stallion as white as snowwhich the speed of the winds and endurance unoldand you weild a sword of steel forget in fire an ice.
And the cry of a warrior you soundand victory is in our eyes.
Hear me my son,for you are the chosen one..."
