Always one step ahead of the storm,
the caravan is crossing the sands.
A mile away from here is the island and the lake.
That is where the caravan will land..
Always one step ahead of the sun
the caravan will pitch the tents.
That is where the oasis will begin and the desert end.
Always one step ahead of the dawn
the rooster will call in the far-away town
and that will be the call of the life.
Always one step ahead of the tribe
the man in front will scan the farthest sign
to scour the land in search of the light.
May the darkness of the spirit not overtake the tribe.
May each and every man make it up to the destined post.
