lyrics

Firs Days in Paradise

Let’s go explore
This promising land of wealth
Beyond the reefs of coral
Let’s penetrate the depths of the forest.

Creatures with a strange appearance
People this dream like world
So receptive, this land
Will be our new life

Let’s prune, let’s cut
Lianas and reeds to chart our course
See this space by the river
We shall settle here

Widen this clearing
Erect huts and fences
Let’s settle here in
Our new paradise

At each pickaxe you hurt me
You dig in my own heart
Leave this place now
Protected by the Gods

*

Nothing to fear
Our world will rise
Let’s settle here
In our new paradise

*

Today, some of the boldest
Will go with me to the mountains
I already perceive gold
Here, we will find what this land contains

Now begin to hollow
Deeper out in this spot
With this brilliant stone, we’ll follow
The road to wealth

These resources are not yours
Depart while there’s still time
Stop your journey now
Leave this shrine

*

Nothing to fear
Our world will rise
Let’s settle here
In our new paradise

*

Leave here now
As long as you can depart.
You won't find your paradise here
This land must be preserved.

*
Nothing to fear
Our world will rise
Let’s settle here
In our new paradise
