Final Blessing
Song (all): Brothers, Now Our Meeting Is Over
Brothers (sisters, mothers, fathers), now our meeting is over; brothers, we must part,
and if I never see you anymore, I'll hold you in my heart.
And we'll land on the shore, we'll land on the shore,
we'll land on the shore, and I'll hold you in my heart.
