One day in the year of the fox   Came a time remembered well   When the strong young man of the rising sun   Heard the tolling of the great black bell      One day in the year of the fox   When the bell began to ring   Meant the time had cometh   For one to go   To the temple of the king      There in the middle of the circle he stands   Searching, seeking   With just one touch of his trembling hand   The answer will be found      Daylight waits while the old man sings   Heaven help me   And then like the rush of a thousand wings   It shines upon the one   And the day had just begun      One day in the year of the fox   Came a time remembered well   When the strong young man of the rising sun   Heard the tolling of the great black bell      One day in the year of the fox   When the bell began to sing   It meant the time had cometh   For one to go   To the temple of the king      There in the middle of the people   He stands   Seeing, feeling   With just a wave of a strong right hand   He's gone   To the temple of the king      Far from the circle at the edge of the world   He's hoping, wondering   Thinking back from the stories he's heard   Of what he's going to see      There in middle of the circle it lies   Heaven help me   Then all could see by the shine in his eyes   The answer had been found      Back with the people in the circle   He stands   Giving, feeling   With just one touch of a strong right hand   They know   Of the temple and the king
