The mountains so tall and the blue skies,
Encircled in clouds like a queen
Her skirts decorated in valleys -
The gem at her heart is Cyrene.
The soft winter snows and the blizzards,
The rains of the spring and the fall,
The smiles on the faces of neighbors,
The Vashnars have something for all!
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
The sparkling sands of the desert,
The warm winds and heat of the sun,
Tiny flowers on prickly pear cactus -
Watching jarbos as they play and run
Take a net out into the savannah,
Catch the butterflies, pearl white and red.
Summerstorms, indigo, emperors,
Flutter teasingly over your head.
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
Wander east to the city of Shallam,
With its high walls and crystalline domes.
Watch the fishermen out in the harbor,
And study the Codex and tomes.
When you stop at the village of Jaru,
Make sure that you mention my name.
Buy a round for the folks at the tavern -
I think you'll be glad that you came!
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
Take a trip up the blue river Zaphyr,
From ocean and delta to wood.
Stop by for a small treat in Delos -
I hear that the ice cream is good!
The tree village of Eleusis
Will be the next stop on your way.
Meet the druids and sylvans and sent'nels
Patrolling the forests all day.
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
The lure and excitement of shopping
In Hashan, the Crown Merchant town,
Will draw you to shops of all sizes
For trinket or potion or gown.
Up the coast is the place all the bards know -
Tasur'ke, the pearl diver's home.
At the Grotto of Song, bless your rapier,
'Twixt the the sands and the ocean's white foam.
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
To the west lies the City of Freedom,
Bold Ashtan, Bastion of the North.
In times of great hardship and danger
The Zarathustran Eagle comes forth!
New Thera, of the first Athenaeum,
The Chapel of All Gods, Seasone,
And the Flame of the great Tree Yggsdrasil:
Historical places - well known
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
And now to the Island of Mhaldor,
Where Oppression and Suffering hold sway.
Between red fog, piranhas and Evil
It is no place for you to delay!
There's so many places in Sapience,
And so many people to meet.
Now with ships, we can sail o'er the oceans -
New paths for the Wanderer's feet!
Wandering, wandering over the land,
What glorious sights when you roam!
Wherever you wander, whatever you find,
Your heartsong will bring you back home!
