Listen to the ways of humans |
|
How they thrive on reckless chances, |
|
Dynasty and heart's desire |
|
Ride on slippers left at dances |
|
For a narrow chance at freedom |
|
Nothing is too good to stake |
|
Grow your hair or spin your metal |
|
Run with heros in your wake |
|
Hear about the restless men |
|
On the seas that know them best |
|
Finding gold, seducing mermaids |
|
Stealing rocs' eggs from their nests |
|
Listen to the ways of humans |
|
Fear not what now comes to you |
|
Soon your spirit will go with them, |
|
Reckless, rootless, sailing too. |
