[01:03.11]My Child, I will bury you on the highest hill,
[01:12.79]Beside the tallest tree where winter will cover you
[01:22.69]And build the biggest castle.
[01:30.12]There I will bury you, from the arms of your mother.
[01:39.44]
[01:57.57]Soon the angels will carry you over the edge of the world,
[02:05.14]Lead you through the deepest forest,
[02:10.83]Away from sickness, into the light.
[02:16.93]Sleep my child, lay down your head and leave this pain,
[02:25.61]I'll read your these last pages of the tale.
[02:31.38]To endless morning I'm cursed from here on;
[02:38.15]You will be taken, I was meant to stay...
[02:46.94]
[02:50.14]The Emerald Forest was quiet
[02:58.41]And the deep green of the diamond leaves
[03:07.51]Was glimmering in the sky high tree tops
[03:18.55]On the gentle wind, tall as the mountains in the east.
[03:28.34]
[03:31.16]Echoes of the steps of giants
[03:39.50]Were fading like the beat of your weak heart.
[03:47.14]Shades of night welcome you with a twisted smile.
[03:58.24]Slowly with every tiny breath.,
[04:05.31]Hold my hand tight, nothing will hurt you here.
[04:21.02]You are almost home my little angel,
[04:30.96]I will lead you through.
[04:34.54]
[04:39.54]Night creatures, unicorns and white owls,
[04:48.23]Treasures hidden in the emerald glow.
[04:56.03]Green light on the white altar and the black throne,
[05:03.48]Choirs of ancients blessing your passage to the world below.
[05:15.35]
[05:50.25]The path through the woods was getting narrow
[06:00.15]And the aisle of trees shaded the last light of the moon.
[06:08.88]But the light from the candles on the bridge
[06:14.06]Across the Water
[06:18.67]Lit the way from emerald steps, marking our trail deeper.
[07:03.78]This is the frontier as far as I can pass,
[07:11.26]But the calling of the Blackbird
[07:16.13]Will lead you on from here.
[07:20.24]Every tear will turn to an emerald in this forest,
[07:28.36]And this is where it ends,
[07:32.51]The cry turns to laughter, my son.
[07:36.98]You will be taken, I was meant to stay, my loved one.
[07:46.74]
