The heart of the sky is lit in his eyes, O, mighty eagle, predator true, Guide us to the homeland, Our families too,
Yes, he replied, But a price you must pay, The heart of your child, I was taken with dismay,
With a shudder I agreed, For my people's sake, But never I thought, That was what he would take,
Mighty eagle, Soaring free, Calling, searching, Looking for me,
For I never gave him my own child's heart, I could never honour the deal I once made, He calls for my blood, my soul, my love, For the price that I never paid.
