There is no pack that the lone wolf will call his own,
For the strength of the lone wolf is his and his alone.
From the shadows to moonlight, he climbs upon high rock,
For he shan’t call upon no one to help, nor on heaven’s and hell’s door he shall knock.
From upon high rock, he deems an enemy everything in his sight,
For the only companion of the lone wolf is the silence of the night.
There is no howl heard from lone wolf, by silence he wishes to be embraced.
And the shadowy path is all he sees. For he knows that it is his fate.
And from high rock he climbs down. To the shadowy path he walks on his own,
For the strength of the lone wolf is his and his alone.
