Lyrics:
It brought me on this journey here
A bare footprint in the sand that will fade away
Odysseus' vessel still sails on
Battling Cyclopes, Sirens, and demons – it sails.
It sails through seas to other worlds
Further into the light
It brought me on this journey here
A faithful lighthouse keeper, sworn forever
To the dawns of the zephyrs
To the fire of truth
To the oaths that kept their word
I swear by dreams
By the chimera of beauty
Ah, life of a child becoming a man*
Blind bow
Bow of fate
Bow of fate, of necessity
Whatever wasn't given, was earned
With soul on the lips... it doesn't matter
Nothing ever changed on its own
Said an old friend of mine
Who's eaten by melancholy
I swear by dreams
By the chimera of beauty
Ah, life of a child becoming a man
Blind bow
Bow of fate,
Bow of fate, of necessity
*The lyrics draw inspiration from the poem “Epeteios” by Odysseus Elytis (from the collection “Prosanatolismoi”), with the characteristic phrase “Ah, life of a child becoming a man” seamlessly integrated into the work.
