So as you shiver in the cold and the dark, Look into the fire and seen in its spark — My eye Watching over you. As you walk in the wind's whistling claws, Listen past the howling wolf's jaws. My song Comes to you. And when you're lost in trackless snow, Look up high where the eagles go. My star Shines for you. In deep, dark mine or on crumbling peak, Hear the words of love I speak. My thoughts Are with you You are not forsaken You are not forgotten. The North cannot swallow you. The snow cannot bury you. I will come for you. Faerûn will grow warmer, And the gods will smile But, oh, my love, guard yourself well — All this may not happen for a long, long while.
