My soul has been torn from me, and I am bleeding My heart, it has been rent, and I am crying All the beauty around me fades, and I am screaming I am the last of the great whales and I am dying
Last night I heard the cry of my last companion The roar of the harpoon gun, and then I was alone I thought on the days gone by when we were thousands But I know that I soon must die, the last leviathan
This morning the sun did rise, crimson edge to the north sky The ice was the color of blood, and the winds, they did sigh I rose for to take a breath, it was my last one From a gun came the roar of death, and now I am done
And so since time began, we have been hunted Through oceans that were our homes we have been haunted From Eskimos in canoes to mighty whalers Still you ignored our pleas, none came to save us
Oh now that we all are gone, there is no more hunting The big fellow is no more, it's no use lamenting What race will be next in line all for the slaughter? The elephant or the seal, or your sons and daughters?
My soul has been torn from me, and I am bleeding My heart, it has been rent, and I am crying All the beauty around me fades, and I am screaming I am the last of the great whales and I am dyingTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
