Spirit Of The Forest
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,

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

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:"
