In this place I shelter now The fire built will soon die down I thirst for You on this dry land My life is daily in Your hand A sign from the hills A veil floats by I sail to the island í* A sign from the hills A veil over me A last farewell I said And now I bow in humble praise Will this writing never fade And will the heroes and the same For all these gifts are in your name A sign from the hills A veil floats by I sail to the island í* A sign from the hills A veil over me A last farewell I said (*Iona island, off the coast of Scotland is known in Irish as í)
