lyrics

Wandering through the forest
Only two feet high
The proud gnome stands tall
Only two feet high
Drifting toward adventure
Gently treading by
The kind woods guide him
Through darkened skies
We look to you
A child of darkness who brightened our view
We feel your warmth
A mother comes to you from out in the North
Fear not, beloved gnome
As foliage grew, so did his beard
Learning from the woodland dwellers all through his years
Taking to heart what he’d hear
“Life is your story” flying fox said
“Companions are your life,” confided the wolf twins
“Your story is your own“ spoke the stag
I shall be what I must become
Gentle and ruthless, nature’s manifestation
The sacred forest’s guardian
Ursa Major said, “I want you, I need you, I feel you”
“I love you, I miss you, I feel you”
Beloved creatures, fear not
We will feed the soil with the hunters’ rot
They’ll feel the death that they brought
In the shape of a mother bear
An age of serenity follows him everywhere
The savior of the woodland prayers
