The Beginning

[Gjest King James]

And So it beginns...

[Gjest Bellatrix]

Velkommen tilbake!

[Hu i Svingen]

Gently they stir, gently rise

The dead are newborn awakening

With ravaged limbs and wet souls

Gently they sigh in rapt funeral amazement

Who called these dead to dance?

[Gjest King James]

am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints in snow,

I am the sunlight and ripened grain.

I am the gentle Autumn rain.

When you awake in the morning hush,

I am the swift upflinging rush

Of quiet birds in circling flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there, I did not die.
