Come forth!

As children of the night, go forth

My heart throbs so wild

All day, all night

In the heart's of hungry dark

Ere the dying hours begin

Ere I grasps its burning silence

O for thou I gave my youth

O for thou I carry my youth

From nothing, to nothing, of nothing

For the heart whose built in flames

For the heart whose forever aflame

As an iron of the night side

Here I come, careless child, in every sight

To seek, to find, to dig, to dive,

To breathe the death my love

Now hearken!

Not for the world's gold this ride,

but journey, timeless journey

And thus I've promise to keep,

Time to time, miles to miles

Iron heart!

As in the land of dark and wide

I walk unseen

Wander off by myself,

As the mask of the night and the ashen morning sky

'Tis the pure aim

To view all life;

With the burning eyes of a nature child

From the edge of doom to the heart of the wild
