Now on the road
I've traveled all my life
My shoe are gone
My feet are worn in strife
And when the sun
Shall set along the trees
I'll rest my load
And sleep the night in peace
When in my youth
The path rolled onwards swift
My ankles winged
My shoulders light to lift
But seasons turn
And light begins to fade
I'll end my day
With body heavy laid
A chilling wind
Blows tatters in my sail
The darkness comes
My eyes begin to fail
The rocky track
Makes legs to break their stride
My heart's last sigh
To mark this day I died
