Dom Yann Derrien please do not be afraid This is no demon's dream you have made I am the ghost of your dear mother's soul This night to Compostella you must go
Long and far is the path of the pilgrims of old Paved with pebbles of silver and stones of gold From Galicia you may deliver my soul To the city of Compostella you must go
And as the pilgrim's way you retrace A beast of darkness you will face He will entice you your journey to forsake Or he will cast you in the ocean's wake
O Santiago will you be my guide And will your spirit travel by my side This prayer was heard throughout Galicia Then he appeared at Compostella
And he delivered three souls His father's soul, his mother's soul and his own soul
