Lyrics for "A Distant Sadness"

"A Distant Sadness" plays at the start of "Occupation" and is sung by Raya Yarbrough in Armenian. Musically it is a variation of the Roslin theme that first appears in the track "Kobol's Last Gleaming" during the discovery of Kobol, set to new lyrics.

Lyrics (in Armenian):	Roman transliteration:	English translation:
Հեռու եւ ծանօթ տխրություն մը մեզ կը կանչէ Քամիով բերուած՝ այրուող աւազի նման Եղբայրներ եւ Քոյրեր՝ որ հեռւում էք՝ դուք կը տոկաք Անելանելի վիծակի մէջ՝ մեր իսկ հողին վրայ։ Յիշողութիւն մը փորագրուած հոգու եւ մորթի մէջ Կը թողնէ սպի մը որ երբեք չի բուժուիր Մեր ընտանիքը ամուր է՝ բայց ցիրուցան Աստղերու եւ դաշտերու տարածութեան մէջ։ Մենք ձեզ չի պիտի լքենք Մենք ձեզ չի պիտի մոռնանք Մենք ձեզ համար պիտի վերադառնանք։	Heṙow ew çanòt’ txrowt’yown më mez kë kančē K’amiov berowaç, ayrowoġ awazi nman Eġbayrnr ew Koyrer, or heṙwowm ēk’ dowk kë tokak Anelaneli viçaki mēǰ, mer isk hoġin vray. Yišoġowt’in më p’oragrowaç hogow ew mort’i mēǰ Kë t’oġnē spi më or erbek’ či bowžowir Mer ëntanik’ë amowr ē, bayc’ c’irowc’an Astġerow ew dašterow taraçowt’ean mēǰ. Menk’ jez či piti lk’enk’ Menk’ jez či piti moṙnank’ Menk’ jez hamar piti veradaṙnank’.	A distant and familiar sadness calls to us As if carried on the wind, like burning sand Brothers and Sisters, away, you endure Stranded on our own land A memory etched into soul and skin Leaves a scar that never heals Our family is strong, but scattered Across the stars and fields We will not abandon you We will not forget you We will return for you
