Song Of The Whale (the Last Leviathan) Lyrics

My soul has been torn from me -and I am bleeding
My heart it has been wrenched -and I am crying
All beauty around me fades -and I am screaming
I am the last of the great whales -and I am dying

Last night I heard the cry -of my last companion
The roar of the harpun gun -and I was alone
I reflect on the days gone by -when we were thousands
And I know that soon I shall die -The last leviathan

This morning the sun arose -Crimson in the sky The ice was the colour of blood -the wind it did sigh
I rose up to take a breath -It was my last one
>From the burn came the roar of death -And I was done

And now that we are all gone -And there's no more hunting
The big fellow is no more -No use lamenting
What race shall be next in time -Or for the slaughter
The elephant or the seal -Or your son's and daughters
