Δεν πρόκειται για άλλο παρά για το υπέροχο, μοναδικό κι ανεπανάληπτο "Over the hills and far away" των Nightwish! Δεν έχει μόνο μουσική που σου τραβάει την προσοχή, αλλά περιγράφη μια περίεργη περιπέτεια ενός..."κακομοίρη".

They came for him one winter's night.
Arrested, he was bound.
They said there'd been a robbery,
his pistol had been found.

Βλέπουμε πως ήταν ένα περιζήτητο άτομο...

They marched to the station house,
he waited for the dawn.
And as they led him to the dock,
he knew that he'd been wrong.
"You stand accused of robbery,"
he heard the bailiff say.
He knew without an alibi,
tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom.

Over the hills and far away,
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Over the mountains and the seas,
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.

Μα τι καταδίκη Χριστέ μου...!

He knew that it would cost him dear,
but yet he dare not say.
Where he had been that fateful night,
a secret it must stay.
He had to fight back tears of rage.
His heart beats like a drum.
For with the wife of his best friend,
he spent his final night of freedom.

Τι καλύτερο? Οι φίλοι πρέπει να τα μοιράζονται όλα!

Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
Far from the mountains and the seas,
back in her arms he swears he'll be.
Over the hills and far away.

Over the hills and,
over the hills and,
over the hills and far away.

Each night within his prison cell,
he looks out through the bars.
He reads the letters that she wrote.
One day he'll know the taste of freedom.

Over the hills and far away,
she prays he will return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
back in his arms she swears she'll be.

Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
Far from the mountains and the seas,
back in her arms he swears he'll be.

Over the hills and far away,
she prays he will return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
back in his arms is where she'll be.

Over the hills,
over the hills and far away.

Δεν είναι ένα απλό κομμάτι, είναι σκέτη ποίηση! Και για να μη χαθεί στο δρόμο της μετάφρασης παραμένει στην αρχική του γλώσσα. Απολαύστε το:
