Over the Mountain Across the Sea
Love's Quest: Journey Beyond Mountains and Seas
Lyrics
Over the mountain
Expressing the idea of overcoming challenges or obstacles.
Across the sea
Refers to a distant place or journey, symbolizing separation.
There's a girl, she's waiting for me
Describes a specific person eagerly anticipating a reunion.
Cross over the river, beyond every cloud
Suggests overcoming difficulties, possibly a metaphor for life's challenges.
She's passed the wind that's blowing loud
Indicates that the person has faced and conquered hardships.
Over the mountain, a girl waits for me
Reiterates the anticipation of meeting the waiting girl.
Tell all the sands and every blade of grass
Personifying elements of nature, asking for a message to be conveyed.
Please tell the wind to let my love pa-ass
Requesting nature to facilitate the passage of the singer's love.
Over the mountain, a girl waits for me
Reiteration of the girl waiting over the obstacle (mountain).
Tell the moon up in the sky
Extending the plea to celestial bodies, addressing the moon.
Tell the birds that fly-why by
Expanding the message to include birds in the sky.
That over and over and over the mountain
Emphasizes the persistent nature of the girl's waiting.
My love waits for me
Affirms that the singer's love is steadfast despite the challenges.
Into each dark and starry night
Introduces a new setting, possibly emphasizing the mysterious nature of the night.
Oh, what a mystery that's sealed so tight
Reflects on the enigmatic aspects of the night, reinforcing separation.
Over the mountain, a girl waits for me
Repeats the idea of a girl waiting, creating a sense of longing.
