The Talisman
[00:16.67] When I stand and
[00:17.91] Look about the port
[00:20.91] And contemplate
[00:22.67] My life
[00:24.91] Will I ever see
[00:26.66] My countrymen again?
[00:30.91] ...
[00:32.92] As the captain calls us
[00:35.16] On the deck
[00:36.91] I take my things
[00:38.66] And walk
[00:40.66] To the harbour side
[00:42.66] I glance back
[00:44.91] One last time
[00:46.67] ...
[00:51.31] Fleeing our nation,
[00:54.56] Our problems
[00:56.06] We leave behind
[00:58.06] Ships by the tenfold
[01:00.81] Sail out on the tide
[01:03.94] We are pleased to be out
[01:06.94] And embracing the open sea
[01:11.20] Free from our troubles
[01:13.95] And more free from thee
[01:17.20] Inheritors unfulfilled
[01:20.70] Reason behind us
[01:23.95] We flee from what is not,
[01:26.95] What is will be
[01:30.32] We flee the earth and face
[01:33.33] Our harsh reality
[01:36.32] Will death be low mist
[01:39.08] That hangs on the sea?
[01:43.07] We run from
[01:44.33] Evil tongues
[01:45.83] Rash judgements,
[01:47.58] Selfish men
[01:49.07] Never to be seen
[01:51.57] On these shores again
[01:54.83] As we sail
[01:56.08] Into ocean size
[01:58.58] And lose sight
[01:59.83] Of land
[02:01.58] Face of contentment
[02:04.07] Around in the air
[02:07.96] We're off now
[02:08.96] To seek all our fortunes
[02:12.71] To the land of our dreams....
[02:19.71] ...
[02:28.71] Riding the waves and
[02:30.96] The storm is upon us
[02:34.46] The winds lash the sails
[02:36.71] But the ropes keep them tight
[02:40.96] Off in the distance
[02:43.71] A dark cloud approaching
[02:47.21] None could imagine
[02:49.96] What there was to come
[02:53.21] No,
[02:53.47] There's no-one going back
[02:55.96] No,
[02:56.46] There's not a second chance
[02:58.96] As we strap
[03:00.22] Onto the side
[03:02.21] We pray to God
[03:03.46] That we won't die
[03:05.97] As we ride
[03:07.22] The rough seas
[03:08.97] As we soak
[03:09.97] From the ocean waves
[03:12.21] I just hope
[03:13.71] For all our lives
[03:15.21] And pray that I survive
[03:18.71] Four ships are lost
[03:20.71] In the stormy conditions
[03:24.71] The spirits of
[03:25.96] The sunken crews
[03:27.71] Their phantoms follow us
[03:30.21] Spirits sails,
[03:31.71] They drive us on
[03:33.46] Through the
[03:34.10] All-consuming waves
[03:36.60] Cold mortality,
[03:38.35] No weapon
[03:39.85] Against these
[03:40.60] Ever raging seas
[03:43.60] ...
[03:55.75] Four leagues and ten and
[03:58.25] We hit storms again
[04:02.00] We just can't get away
[04:04.50] From the eye of the storm
[04:08.25] The birds outsoar
[04:09.50] The raging storm
[04:11.25] But we cannot escape it
[04:14.50] Abandoned earth,
[04:15.50] That we now crave
[04:17.25] Is many leagues from save
[04:19.00] ...
[04:19.75] Holding on for
[04:21.25] Our dear lives
[04:22.75] And we're praying
[04:24.25] Once again
[04:26.00] Rotten luck or
[04:27.50] Just jonahed?
[04:29.00] The talisman
[04:30.25] Is in my hand
[04:32.75] ...
[04:57.88] Limbs fatigue,
[04:58.88] Trembling with cold
[05:00.88] Blinded from the
[05:02.13] Sea spray salt
[05:03.63] Clasping anything
[05:05.38] We can hold
[05:06.63] Heaven's rain
[05:08.13] Upon us falls
[05:09.38] ...
[05:09.88] Twenty days
[05:10.63] Without a meal
[05:12.63] And ten without
[05:13.88] Fresh water still
[05:15.38] Those that didn't
[05:16.88] Die in storms
[05:18.63] The scurvy rest
[05:19.63] Did slaughter
[05:20.77] ...
[05:32.77] Westward
[05:35.27] The tide
[05:38.77] Westward
[05:40.77] We sail on
[05:44.52] Westward
[05:46.77] The tide
[05:50.52] Sail by
[05:52.77] The talisman
[05:56.27] ...
[07:00.28] We approach
[07:01.28] The other side
[07:03.28] Of the ocean
[07:04.53] With the tide
[07:06.28] In our favour
[07:07.53] Just for once
[07:09.03] Welcome greeting
[07:10.53] Our new land
[07:12.03] The elation
[07:13.53] In our hearts
[07:15.03] The excitement
[07:16.53] In our veins
[07:18.03] As we sail towards
[07:19.79] The coastline
[07:21.03] Of our golden
[07:22.53] Promised land
[07:24.42] ...
[07:46.92] Weary limbs
[07:47.67] Fatigued away
[07:49.42] I have no life
[07:50.67] Left in me
[07:52.42] No more strength
[07:53.42] No nothing
[07:54.67] Left to give
[07:55.92] Must find the
[07:56.92] Will to live
[07:57.81] ...
[07:57.95] Never thought that
[07:59.45] We could make it
[08:00.95] Truly sight
[08:02.45] Of shores divine
[08:03.95] The sickness
[08:05.45] I am dying from
[08:07.20] Never wanted it
[08:08.20] To end this way
[08:10.34] Westward
[08:12.45] The tide
[08:16.20] Westward
[08:18.20] We sail on
[08:21.70] Westward
[08:23.95] The tide
[08:27.45] Sail by
[08:29.70] The talisman
[08:33.20] Westward
[08:35.45] The tide
[08:38.85] Westward
[08:41.09] We sail on
[08:44.84] Westward
[08:46.84] The tide
[08:50.09] Sail by
[08:52.85] The talisman
