To the land in the East is where I wish to fare. There lives my heart’s beloved. Beyond mountains and deep valleys, under the greenest of lime trees. Beyond mountains and deep valleys, under the greenest of lime trees. Yes, there I wish to build a cottage where the ground is ever green. Yes, there I wish to build a cottage where the ground is ever green. And the trees are crowned with flowers of the sweetest scent. Yes, the trees are crowned with flowers of the sweetest scent. My soul – prepare yourself for the long journey ahead. My soul – prepare yourself for the long journey ahead. Beyond mountains and dry heathens, until day turns to night. Beyond mountains and dry heathens, until day turns to night.
