May your spirit roam where the eagles soar,

May it finally rest on that immortal shore,

Where the Wandering Warriors long to be, Replete for all eternity.

 

May your shadow remain in our infinite care,

May your stories be legend wherever we share,

May your memory stay engraved in our hearts,

May your friendship and love never from us depart.

 

May the running waves, the quiet earth,

And the shining stars recall your worth.

And when we are not, with no-one beside,

With our own true spirit wandering wide,

May you meet us, greet us, the good things renew,

And may we become Wandering Warriors too.
