A mariner under a sky moonlit
On an island of a crewless ship
A few decades of immortality ahead
A one-man crew for a one-way trip
Islands, islands everywhere
I keep my range with crowded sails
My waves, they kiss every shore I land
Steep cliffs will mock my waving hand
Islanders, villagers, universal mariners
Calling me, guiding me, Monsters far beneath
Hurricanes on the way, Lunatic weather vanes
Shipwrecked lovers on a faraway cay
Passing by butterflies, fluttering for a day
Jokers, jesters, Goddesses, hominidae
Deep delicious blue beneath
I'll steer wherever tomorrow is near
Light a beacon so I can navigate
Through the tempest
Through the madness
Light a homefire for the sad man
With a begging hand
Light a beacon so I can navigate
Through the tempest
Following the quintet
Ride on the highest wave
Bring me to life
To them who dance in the daylight
Sail and seek
The starbound quay
Calling you, calling me
To be a part of your story
Here raining ash to cover the dead
An island of the past wrecks
Of you, of the endless sundown
Hemlock meadows, deepest quicksand
Empty harbor by a wasteland
Mirrors, mirrors, everywhere
For you of mad despair
Friends, who were for a time
Now grapes of sour wine
Lords of a single fly
Still, I rue no island
Of shared solitude
You who glow
In deepest woe
Let it be, retiree, the water's fine
Sail carefree
Sail and seek
The starbound quay
Calling you, calling me
To be a part of your story
On these strange islands
Nightwish is a Finnish symphonic metal band formed in 1996 in Kitee. Considered pioneers of the genre, they have achieved international fame thanks to the combination of heavy metal with classical, orchestral and gothic elements. Their sound is characterized by epic melodies, lyrics often inspired by fantasy and mythological themes, and the powerful operatic voice of Floor Jansen (since 2012), who replaced Tarja Turunen after a period of internal controversy. Among their most representative songs are "Nemo", "Wish I Had An Angel" and "The Islander". The album "Once" (2004) is considered one of their most important works, achieving international success. The band has collaborated with numerous artists, including the Finnish orchestra and composer Tuomas Holopainen, who is also their main songwriter.
