Down from the north rode
a wild barbarian,
Down from the north with his sword in his hand.
Down from the north rode Brak the barbarian,
Seeking the way to a far-distant land.
Bound for the south and
the warm climes of Khurdisan,
Bound for the south where the gold idols gleam.
Bound for the south rode Brak the barbarian,
Seeking the way to a golden dream.
Black was the pain of the
wild barbarian,
Black was the pain for the maid on the hill.
Black was the pain of Brak the barbarian.
He rode away and he rides somewhere still.
--Tyresias, The Song of Brak
