Book I - The Tale of Father Robin

Lyrics: Andreas W. S. Prestmo

The Tale of Father Robin

This is the tale of Father Robin
Living in a mighty tree
Gathered from the dream was he
One was one and one was three

The one, the seed, the wanderer, the prince of day and light
The waker and the dreamlit star that shineth from a far, so bright - the brother of the night

With the mystic essence of the dream he made the rivers and  the greatest of all trees, the tree of life 
And the beings of the greens, of wich we sing 
Father Robin the waker of our spring

The one, the seed, the wanderer, the prince of day and light
The waker and the dreamlit star that shineth from a far, so bright - the brother of the night

Eleision Forest

Part I - Approaching the Gates of Morning

Part II - The Guardian Wanderer and the Birth of Day

Stay with me 'till the break of day
Illusioned and captured by the forest spirits 
We can see the morning children, picking flowers to the Sun 
Dancing on the edge, laughing at the pale blue sky

Vision - Maker
Forest - Waker

In Eleision Forest, where spirits dance
The wanderer of morning bring the tunes of day to life

Now the day has arose in delight
Birds and trees painting pictures on the sky
Listen to the willows talking to the breeze
The willows are the philosopher of trees

Slowly - Speaker
Thoughtful - Seeker

In Eleision Forest, the kingdom of the trees
The king and queen of leafbearers unfold the beauty and salute the Prince of day

Part III - The Journey to the River Kingdom

Travel with the wind, pass the philosophic willows
Journey to the mighty streams of water
Where the ancient people live upon the rain of yesterday, the ancients way
And the fairest of the forest starts singing with the river
An ode to the, a hymn to the fairest sweet wonderful

River - Daughter
Princess - of Water

Oh, sing not for me
You children of the river
For I am only a servant of the oldest - the Eleision Forest

So sing and dance for him my master, my creator
Who deserves your gratefulness

Death Of The Fair Maiden

Oh, Father Moon 
Hast thou seen my fair love
She hast been gone 
Since yesternight

Tell unto her, if you meet my fairest one
That I am in search of her
 That I am in search of her

Speaketh the wind of tidings good
I hope, I pray my love is near
Whisper the winds of a maiden fair
Please bring me news I need not fear

Oh, Father Moon 
Hast thou seen my fair love
She hast been gone 
Since yesternight

Speaketh the wind of tidings good
I hope, I pray my love is near
Whisper the winds of a maiden fair
Please bring me news I need not fear

Oh, Father Moon 
Hast thou seen my fair love
She hast been gone 
Since yesternight

Oh, Father Moon 
Hast thou seen my fair love
She hast been gone 
Since yesternight

Twilight Fields

Part I - The Feast
Dancing and celebrating 
Down through the ever growing alley of life
Feasting with the council of the elder
The rejoyce of the dream weavers

Drinking from the fountain
Pouring life into the golden cup
Sensing the euphoria
The nectar of the dreamflower of which we are exalted

Measured and shrill / See to the sky, watch the eye slowly opens
To the edge of continuous silence / Rise to the tune of the Moon growing wiser

Part II - The Obsessive Madness
But in the cup of gold our lust sows the tempting fruit of night
And the passing time of things begin
Age starts the journey, inside each being
So high the spirit! So great the whole mystery!
Shadow and light are now separated
Two creatures of the essence in the dream 

See to the sky, watch the eye slowly opens
Rise to the tune of the Moon growing wiser

Measured and shrill / See to the sky, watch the eye slowly opens
To the edge of continuous silence / Rise to the tune of the Moon growing wiser

Part III - The Alteration
Now I see the miracle is changing
A greater world approaches
Full of light, but also full of dark
Will my being stand the test of wisdom or shall this golden hour be the last in these Twilight Fields

Kaos! 

Eleision Forest, where lies thee?
Lost in this empire
Hidden and posessed by lunatics
I feel no freedom
I long to see your branches open and play with the wind 

Kaos!


 

Unicorn

Part I - The Downfall of the Age of Gold
Eleision is ruined
Every creature has fled 
I flee not
I shall stay and mourn I will

Remember Eleision 
For the time when beings shone
And from the well of our memory
Eleision shall arise a new

Now I see the light of creation 
That I’ve summoned through my life
The dimmest eyes and the cone of life eternal
Reach for me, I loose my life to you 
Unicorn

I slip away from the boundaries of my senses
While my mind tries to focus on this approaching galaxy Immortality

Faces of my youth
And the inklings of my inner self
Communicating while travelling
On the surface of the sea
On the surface of the sea

Images of lost thoughts enter through my forehead
Just to disappear
Lost thoughts, lost worlds
I erupt while sensing the being of my fear

Part II - The Gates of Dawn
See the land, a kingdom of no man

Sitting on a striding unicorn
Riding with the horses of the wind
Heading for the mighty Gates of Dawn
Travel to the city of your unborn life


 

Book II - Ocean Traveller

Lyrics: Andreas W. S. Prestmo

Over Westwinds
(Tira Approaches the Gates of Dawn)

Over Westwinds, free and easing
Bringest thee a shelter for my pleasing
Travelled have I on thine request
Never doubting, asking questions 
When or where to lay myself to rest

Hours of divine sleep
shall unveil its meaning
In your enchanted Land of Dreaming

Rest, oh rest you winged creature

Over Westwinds, free and easing
Bringest thee a shelter for my pleasing
Travelled have I on thine request
Never doubting, asking questions 
When or where to lay myself to rest

Hours of divine sleep
shall unveil its meaning 
In your enchanted Land of Dreaming

Orias & the Underwater City 
Part 1: Descending Through the Veils of Water

Sinking through the fluid veils in brightly coloured light
Carried to a land of whales by the wanderers of life

Ancient plants with emerald glow, dancing in the abyss 
Giant sea trees here do grow amidst colonies of fish

Sea bed pastures, stretching far beyond
Turqouise mountains, Titans of the Void 

Marble structures soaring high
Blue green towers against the aquatic sky
A city under water on abyssal plains of wonder 
Submerged wihin the blue

Entwined around the snakelike roots of the Mother Tree
The organic city here permutes - Metropolis of the Sea

Here the elder spirits dwell - Survivors of the Storm
United by pelagic spells, the language of the first born 

Body of Water, embracing nothingness
Remembering the birthplace, the sound of emptiness

Dreaming, a fellowship of hearts
One mind together, blooming  from the start 
Sharing ancient knowledge, silver pearls of wonder 
In the Council of What To Do?

Part 2: Approaching the City Gates of Oriasaleah

 


 

Ocean Traveller

Here by myself
Wondering what to do?
Do not really know where  I am 

Standing here all alone
Surrounded by the ocean on a stone
Is this another dream or a new enchanted land?

As something just was moving, really grooving, 
Moving forwards, do not know
When standing on a moving stone, it’s always hard to tell

And then suddenly, I hear a voice of old
Speaking a tongue I do not know
But surprisingIy, the music of the syllabels 
Reveals to me what they really mean 

Father Robin, I am Oyriathan
You may not remember me, but I was there 
When you crawled from the Sea
Long ago, which still is now

Ocean travel, ocean travel
Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, travel
Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, travel
Ocean travel, ocean travel

Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, travel
Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, Ocean Traveller, travel
Ocean travel, ocean travel

Lady of Waves

There I see her dancing
On the Sea
Milkwhite laughing lady 
Tenderly, tenderly

Calling with her voice, a thousand sighs
Which reveal the creature
Hidden, hidden in the beauty in her eyes

Lady of Waves, Lady of waves

Father, I am Zeta, of the blue
Daughter of Orias
Who is kindred with you, who is kindred with you
