Lyrics

The mountains flashed
The mountains flashed
With crimson and blood
In farewell to the rays
Of the sun in the west
In farewell to the rays
Of the sun in the west
As my heart burned
With grief and love
Parted from my dear one
So warm, so blessed
Parted from my dear one
So warm, so blessed
Over the ocean
And waves of blue
White seagulls spiral
Continuing their quests
Where should they fly?
Where should they look for you
In the deep unknown?
My swift-winged behests
Dum teketek
In the deep unknown?
My swift-winged behests
Dum teketek dum tek
I lit a fire in my tower
With love and devotion
Waiting for you, my dear
To come home
To shine a light across the ocean
To guide you back from
Wherever you have gone
You have gone
My whole world
My whole world
I’ll wait for you, my dear
Sadly cloaked
In a black feredzhiya
Sadly cloaked
In a black feredzhiya
Plant a cypress branch
In my garden here
And water it every day
With my tears
And water it every day
With my tears
And when you return
I will show you, don’t forget
That a cypress tree
Among flowers will stand
It will rise above
Every minaret
In the richest mosque
In the Seventh Land
Dum teketek
In the richest mosque
In the Seventh Land
Dum teketek dum tek
The Seventh Land
The Seventh Land
