Lyrics
On his trail the stones they grew
Encountering obstacles on his journey, represented by growing stones.
He was lead astray
He deviated from the right path.
Forces strange he had to face
Facing mysterious and powerful forces.
Magic unseen
Dealing with unseen and potent magic.
When he asked, he was not answered
Despite seeking answers, he received none.
But he would not yield
He remained persistent and did not give up.
What he asked for was not given
His requests were denied, leading to frustration.
A shape to his dream
His dreams took a definite form or shape.
To a whirling mass of water
He confronted a powerful, chaotic force represented by whirling water.
Mountains of high
Encountering immense challenges or obstacles.
His desire he spoke out
Expressing his desires openly.
To claim his due
Stating his right to what he deserves.
A shadow moved in Louhi’s mirror
A mysterious figure or entity appeared in Louhi's mirror.
The fairest maid of them all
A beautiful maiden caught his attention.
Restless mind found her to his liking
His restless mind found a connection with the maiden.
But the queen wanted more
The queen's ambitions went beyond what he could offer.
Louhi spoke in riddled tones of three things to achieve
Louhi, in cryptic language, outlined three tasks to be accomplished.
Find and catch the devil’s moose and bring it here to me
First task: Find and bring the devil's moose to Louhi.
Seize the stallion born of fire, harness the flaming horse
Second task: Capture the stallion born of fire and control it.
He captured and bound the moose, he tamed the golden horse
The protagonist successfully completed the specified tasks.
Still remained the one final test
Yet, there remained one final challenge or test.
Hunt the bird from the stream of death
The ultimate task: Hunt the bird from the stream of death.
