I pass beyond time and life on measureless wings
yet still am one with born and unborn things

I have wrapped the wide world in my wider self
and time and space my spirit’s seeing are
I am the god and demon, ghost and elf
I am the wind`s speech and the blazing star

all nature is the nursling of my care (death metal)
I am its struggle and the eternal rest
the world’s joy thrilling runs through me, I bear
the sorrow of millions in my lonely breast

I have learned
a close identity
yet am by nothing bound
that I become

all culture is like this, the unfettered mind (death metal)
the boundless spirit is more imagination
to achieve great things, we must be self confined
mastery is revealed in limitation

carrying in me
the universe’s call
I mount to my
imperishable home
