"There Is The Utter East" (part 1)

We're told the purpose of the voyage

We sail to seek lost men

Seven lords of Narnia sailed

And were never seen again

We wonder, though, why we are here

When Narnia is at peace

Caspian, in three short years

Made all oppression cease

No one has yet ventured east

The unknown lies ahead

There have been many tales

Serpents some have said

"There Is The Utter East" (part 2)

~Reepicheep~

Where sky and water meet

Where the waves grow sweet

Doubt not, Reepicheep to find all you seek

There is the Utter East

~Lucy~

Upon the prow, up in the air

Facing the East without a care

Reepicheep sings a song

The words make my heart long

"That's pretty," I finally say

I startle him, making him sway

~Reepicheep~

I tell Lucy about what I'm singing

"A Dryad sung it when I was a mousling."

I believe that under blue skies

To the East Aslan's Country lies

~Lucy~

"Do you believe there's such a place?"

At this Reepicheep looks into my face

"We have nothing if not belief."

This encouragement is a relief
