Salutations, salutations, I have arrived,
My name whispered, I have arrived.

My name whispered, I have arrived.
From where I came, and how I'll leave,
Do not ask, my friends, do not believe.
Salutations, salutations, I have arrived,
My name whispered, I have arrived.

My Master, why do you hide, appear before me,
If service I can render, then command of me.

If service I can render, then command of me.
The one in whose remembrance sleep deserts you,
That very message, I have arrived, you see.
My name whispered, I have arrived.

What can I do, my heart craves love's embrace,
Friendship with foes like you, I long to trace.

Friends, cast your hands on tales of yesterday,
Bearing tidings new, I have arrived, it is my space.
My name whispered, I have arrived.
Salutations, salutations,
