Far from home came I to be
But he found me there and still love-d me

And church in two made this hard to be

Did I stay with my love and with him be

Shaman I my vows to keep
Never mass to take nor church attend

But she'll burn me if I do not head home.

In another life we'll meet
And I'll be yours again, oh you will see

And my love is yours ev-en in my death
