On Rich And Poor

(Holopainen & Rantala)
Old folk remember
And those today learn
How before their time
Life was different here:
Without the sun people lived
Grouped about without the moon
With candle sowing was done
Planting preformed with torches
At the time we lived
Without the sunshine
Who had cover up our sun
And who had hidden our moon ?
Without the moonlight stumbled
With our fists fumbled the land
With our hands we sought out roads
With hands roads, with fingers swamps
We could not live without sun
Not manage without a moonlight;
Who would seek out the sun
Who spy out the moon ?
Who else if not God
The one son of God ?
