Once I saw a man who lost his breath along the race,
With no yesterday in sight and no tomorrow,
He said: once upon a time there was vision in this place,
This is what I said to help him in his sorrow:
(Chorus):
If you have the heart to see, if you have the time to hear,
If you have not sealed your soul nor sold your mind,
In the ancient hills that our forefathers held so dear,
Seek and you shall find (X2)
Once I met a lady in the spell of faded youth,
With the weight of long-gone flowers on her shoulder,
She said: is there still a place one does not pay to get the truth,
Would you please show me the way – here's what I told her:
(Chorus)
When my children ask me, as they're growing kind and strong,
While the stand-off of the worlds is getting tenser,
Is there a place on Earth where one truly can belong,
I already know what I will answer:
(Chorus)
And if I'm called on high, by any chance to testify
On humanity and its delinquent members,
I will gladly call before the highest court of all,
There is one place where your People still remembers.
(Chorus):
And they have the heart to see, they have the time to hear,
And they have not sealed their soul nor sold their mind,
In the ancient hills that our forefathers held so dear,
Seek and you shall find (X2)
