All the travelers are seated,
thousands in a row;
the chosen ones at the helm
turning hither and thither,
unsure of direction
to the promised shore...

Listen to the Sea!!
For it knows the right path
through the uncharted mist;
Just listen to its song,
listen to the whispers from within —
Will Man unblock his ears
and unclose his eyes?

To the unknown the Ferry drifts
shrouded by misty veil —
While in all the hearts
there weeps a single cry:
Is there a safe harbor
for the Ferry in the Mist?

Now - while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again...and again...
