Letra de Il chierico grigio

Gery is my vest, a mace is at my side
My eyes are those of the Hawk, a gift of the Fairy Queen

Friends I have none, (but) my bride is called Truth
living to serve the Whole, my home is called World.

" La villa mia natia
Dali´aque circondata
Perla tra le perle
Ormani inabissata
lo serbo nel mio grigio cuor

Del Mare Interno avea il primato
Regina d´un mondo assai malato
Serenissima la notte
All´ombra del Leone
lo serbo nel mio grigio cuore."

Wars I will fight, when the Whole wants so
Peace I will seek, only when I feel the need
Reckless I am not, my aim is the Golden Mean
Grey is my vest; my bride is called Truth

The White Inquisitor/ will follow my advice
The Dark Emissary/ will trust the word I say

Hatred and passion are nothing to me
Sacrifice I will if I feel the need

Trend and delight I do not seek
but knowledge and wisdom I wish

An new age is near and the Grey is out there
a war he will start, then peace he will make, until
he finds a new King

All this I do without even moving
I let the History flow towards its final doom

Here I go, towards my mission, my destiny, my life
Riding my horse, wrapped in grey, followed by my silver hawk
like a shadow among the shadows I´m off
no one can save me, but I can save this World.
