Between the glades of jade grass
And the steppes of earth and stone
Where the sky was pure and blue
There ran a river so strong and proud
There bore a child of wolf and faun
He fed from the faun and hunted with the wolf
Befriended the falcon and sung with the wind
He was wild and grew to be strong
River child, wild and free
Come, my brothers, and soon you'll see
Grace of the faun and cunning of the hound
No one knows where the child is bound
River child, wild and free
Come, my brothers, and soon you'll see
Grace of the faun and cunning of the hound
No one knows where the child is bound
In these holy plains, a divine child plays
Forging the path for all of us to follow
O, gather 'round my brothers
And lay witness to this gift from the gods
A golden child born of the wild
Lay praise upon him and may he gift us with seeded blood
Nature protects him
The welkin guides him, the boy painted all in mud
Hai! Hai!
