Discover the story of the song > An Island – ye vagabonds

The song is about an island which can be seen as a metaphor for a person. The protagonist is strong and whole, and cannot be divided. They welcome the forces of nature and embrace their surroundings, represented by the wide open door to the ocean. The chorus emphasizes the idea that being alone or together with others is all that they will ever be, and that they are more than just a physical object, they are a part of something greater.
