🎶 The Riddle song analysis
The protagonist sings about his two strong arms and his desire to move forward despite past mistakes. He references an old man of Aran who circles around a tree by a river and his mind serves as a beacon in the night. The protagonist believes that there is a right and a wrong way of doing things, but he'll never fight over his partner because wise men don't fight over love.
