Notes

The lyrics are largely based upon a quote from Mat, "sa souvraya niende misain ye" ("within my mind I am lost"), and the inscription on the Horn of Valere, "tia mi aven moridin isainde vadin" ("to my call death is no barrier"). However, the meaning here seems to refer to Rand, possibly foreshadowing the emergence of Lews Therin Telamon's voice inside Rand's mind, which is subtly hinted at in the same episode as Rand sees a vanishing figure in the desert at one point.
