Doom, doom, doom, the drum beats low,
Not the turtle, no, not so,
Doom, doom, doom, the rhythm's call,
Not the turtle, listen, heed my thrall.
Ni, Sa, Ga, Ma, Pa, Ga, Ma, Re, Sa,
Understand?

Doom, doom, doom, or perhaps the same,
Doom, doom, doom, a whispered name,
Doom, doom, doom, our hearts entwined,
Friends forever, souls aligned,
We are four, a bond so true,
Friends forever, me and you,
Turtle, mouse, and crow so sly,
And the swift deer, soaring high,
Friends forever, a quartet bold,
Turtle, mouse, a story told,
Crow and deer, in unity,
Famed companions, wild and free.

Sixty years, the seasons spun,
They say I'm old, my race is run,
You stumble, slow, they say you're weak,
But turtle, friend, your spirit speaks.
You're not old, you are young.

Deer, the deer, a flying ray,
Speed of light in bright display,
Deer, the deer, a sunbeam's grace,
Swiftness painted on its face,
Mouse is nimble, crow is keen,
Wise and knowing, ever seen,
Friends forever, a bond so true,
We are four, me and you,
Turtle, mouse, and crow so sly,
And the swift deer, soaring high,
Famed companions, wild and free.

Ease or hardship, come what may,
Storms may rage and wash away,
Ease or hardship, hand in hand,
Through tempest wild, across the land,
Ready to give, our love to share,
Famed companions, beyond compare,
Friends forever, a bond so true,
We are four, me and you,
Turtle, mouse, and crow so sly,
And the swift deer, soaring high,
Friends forever, souls aligned,
We are four, for all mankind,
Turtle, mouse, and crow so sly,
And the swift deer, soaring high,
Famed companions, wild and free.
Doom, doom, doom.
