What is best today my friends?
On what should we embark?
In what dark corner should we move?
And light up with our spark?
What sad soul should we embrace?
And what tired friend should we support?
And what scared child should we protect?
And bring into our mighty fort.
The world is full of drowning souls
And hearts bleeding rivers red
Spirits broken on the ground
And flesh so truly dead.
How do we ourselves so frail
Carry others on?
And how do we ourselves so weak
Work to make them strong?
