They were seven good friends both together and alone

by the river in the valley in the forest they had home

they had seen the sun set and rise a million times

the seven trolls stood as tall as the pines

Una and Joures were friends for life and like to lay in the grass

watching the skies crawl by telling stories about the past

Mikil was strong as a dragon and always on his way

Kamiel was wearing a mask a new for every day

Arvid like to carve his dreams into ancient trees

Hannes to put pearls on a string for everyone to see

and little Nora had only seen the sun rise around a million times

she was still a growing troll with her tail and young mind

They could see past the forest to where the future emerged

they had seen civilizations crumble and new rise from the dirt

they had seen the mountains grow turn to ice melt and burn

seen the fish turn to birds and seen the continents turn

And now they saw these little people with actions so great

It could break what forever and ever had made

And the trolls got afraid life should never be borrowed

It was meant to be shared with the day of tomorrow

So the seven trolls gathered up on a mountain top

To find a new way the old way of now had to stop

and Kamiel spoke up – we must help them get better

the little people mean good but they are too young to be clever

Let’s build them a tower as tall as a troll

and show them all beings are one in the soul

It took them all winter by summer it was done

they then invited all the little people to come

And the little people walked to the top where they opened their eyes

and saw past the forests the mountains and skies

they saw to the future with tears in their eyes

what they saw no one knows but the eyes never lie

Una and Joures were friends for life and like to lay in the grass

watching the skies crawl by telling stories about the past
