Korpiklaani

I've wandered with the folk of the woods

Wisdom I've learned from the oldest one

He said: "do not fear me"

And led me to downwards

I saw big aperture in the ground

When he asked me a question

"Do you know what is this hole in the ground,

Do you know the meaning of this?



[Chorus:]

I wondered and wondered

'Cause I knew

If I won't know the answer

I'd never get a shaman drum

And personal ability

I wondered and wondered

'Cause I knew

If I won't know the answer

I'd never get a magic drum and personal ability



Oh yes, this is the place, where you've get

Your spirit to your voice

We stepped through into the earth

And we walked to the river of witches

The river flows two ways I saw

And the old man had a uestion

"You see the water flowing both ways

To the south and north

Do you know why, do you know why?"



[Chorus]



Then I saw old grey wolf, it came to me

And whispered to my ear:

"The northern flow born from the water which dead has been bathed and the southeren flow born from the water which washed a new-born child"



Old man looked at me and the wolf he said:

"Now you have a leader and the truth.

When we go back home, you'll have your drum of your own

And you'll know how to use it:"
