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 of 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 in the north sky The ice was the colour 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
Oh now that we are all gone there's 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 dying
And so since time began we have been hunted Through oceans that were our home we have been haunted From Eskimos in canoes to mighty whalers Still you ignored our plea, none came to save usTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
