Star of the North was more a project than a band. The aim was to make an album of original pieces by Finnish Baha'is. This one is the English language version. There is another one in Finnish, ie. Pohjantahti.

Lyrics
Nevermore Music by Yrjö Mikkonen Lyrics by Harri Peltola Original Lyrics by Jorma Sevón No, nevermore can selfish vanity Ignite the heart to sing a song A song in which humanity Rings from heart to heart throughout the earth A song in which humanity Rings from heart to heart throughout the earth Like unto shade, self veils the sun All life wilts, decays and fades away Like the north wind is its ice-cold breath The vernal flowers freeze to death in May Like the north wind is its ice-cold breath The vernal flowers freeze to death in May When you realize that this is the way it is, my friend Let the warmth of understanding’s breeze Dissolve away those shadows of the sun And then from the blossom to the flower You may hear the whisper The earth is theirs, it belongs to them Who place their trust in the force of love And understand how weak ‘s an individual Whereas the strength of many unlimited And understand how weak ‘s an individual Whereas the strength of many unlimited If the multitude is unified by love
