Lyrics in English

----- Introducing the song -----

There are songs that entertain, and there are songs that open a door to another world. This is one of the latter.

From the salt-stained decks of ancient ships to the marble halls of philosophers, from whispered prayers in the night to the roaring wrath of Poseidon — Ulysses, Penelope and Paul, The Pilgrim – The Myth Untold (pt1) is a voyage across time, faith, and the unyielding power of love.

Here, the legendary patience of Penelope meets the relentless journey of Ulysses, and both are illuminated in a prophetic dream by the pilgrim heart of Paul — a prophet who would born centuries later, sailed not only seas, but the depths of the soul. It is a tapestry woven with threads of Greek myth, biblical echoes, and the eternal human longing for the divine.

The music carries you like a tide — sometimes gentle, sometimes fierce — through verses that shimmer with moonlight and choruses that rise like a hymn to the God whose name cannot be spoken. It is not merely a retelling of an old story, but the unveiling of the myth untold — where love becomes a beacon, faith becomes the helm, and the journey itself becomes the miracle.

This is not just a song to be heard. It is a pilgrimage to be taken. And once you set sail, you may never return the same.

----- Lyrics -----

(Main Theme)

(Verse 1)

With tender hearts, they dreamed apart, 
Through walls and seas, defying gods. 
I rowed through storms, against the tide, 
Your midnight hair, like asters, sighed.

(Break 1)

(Verse 2)

A silent trust my ship would float, 
Though waves would scream, I stayed afloat. 
Your moonlit skin, so pale and bright, 
Reminded me of love’s first light.

(Chorus 1)

From start to end, the stars would cry, 
As heaven watched our tears go by. 
The God whose name we cannot say, 
Still led us through the silent way.

From Ithaca to Athens' flame, 
Each trial passed, we praised His name. 
Our love endured, our faith stood tall, 
And through the myth, we gave our all.

(Guitar Solo)

(Verse 3)

It wasn’t Ithaca he sought, 
But something timeless, deeply taught. 
And through Poseidon’s raging sea, 
Faith steered the soul of this Greek free.

(Verse 4)

Penelope, with hands of grace, 
Stitched hope through time, in silent space. 
Though she could not behold my face, 
By faith alone, she held our place.

(Interlude)

“In the Dreams Realm, I saw Greek men in marble stone, 
Debating ether, thought alone. 
Altars raised to gods known, 
And there, between the void and word, 
A pilgrim’s voice was deeply heard: ‘To the Unknown God.’ " 

The temple stirred.

(Chorus 2)

To the Unknown God we sing, 
Beyond the mind, beyond the king. 
Among the wise, the myth took flight, 
Revealed in truth, revealed in light.

At the empty altar’s flame, 
I heard the echo of His name. 
You, Penelope, always mine, 
And now this God, both human and divine.

(Final of Part 1)

From myth to miracle, sea to sky, 
Penelope and Paul, hope lifted high. 
The love that waits, the faith that flows, 
Moves waters deep, where mountains froze.

In the name we cannot speak, 
We found the truth the wise still seek.

Uli - Ulysses, Penelope and Paul, The Pilgrim - The Myth Untold (pt.1)

My music career began at the age of 6 when I received a guitar from my parents. I learned two chords and formed my first band. Our equipment was a puppet piano, two washing drums and a guitar. Between the ages of 12 and 15 I played in several bands with friends. Big role models were Jimi Hendrix, Doors, Janis Joplin, Alwin Lee etc. I was mainly influenced by Krautrock bans like Can, Groschnitt and Eloy. In the meantime I was able to improvise a few barre chords, mainly using the blues scale. But practicing was never my thing. So I automatically only progressed a step further when I liked a new riff. Music has always been an integral part of my work with children and people with disabilities. In 1990 I founded the band “Kroklowafzi” with friends, and later I played in the “Karl Grass Companie” purely for the joy of music, without any professional ambitions (audio samples are available on YouTube on my SoundCloud channel). During this time I had the opportunity to record my music in multiple tracks for the first time. Everything was still very amateurish and chaotic. After a divorce, I ended up on the streets and went into a psychotic episode. I now had 6 children to support but couldn't work. During this time, my brother gave me a music program that I could use to remaster my recordings from the last few years.

Chained music &
the power
of drum sound

Music for speakers as honesty in art
Allowing music to do what it wants to do with us
A project is finished when the new becomes compelling
Ullip

Not, and this marks its artistic profile, not additively, "side by side". Ullip combines these functions in order to let a new something emerge from them. CDs whose tracks do not preserve and reproduce "played music" as is usually the case. But CDs where the music is created by editing, mixing and recording it "on the fly". The CD as an audience, so to speak. With the great advantage that - in contrast to live sessions - one can enjoy the cuts of the CDs over and over again.
Based on a rich musical experience and an almost "wild" past, Ullip - together with other musicians - has today found a style that activates and inspires a special genre:

'Chained music'.

Sounds and pieces, music and rhythms that are played in a self-inspiring way or created on technical devices. Born in the moment, just like jazz. Also, not only as in jazz, given as a theme, otherwise improvised. Above all, they are not reproductions in the sense of notated notes. All the elements that stand between the first beat and sound of a live gig, a studio recording and the final burning process on a CD are interlinked to create what the "piece" recorded on silver discs ultimately is.

Music isn’t just a hobby it’s a part of who I am. As a devoted listener, I find beauty in all genres, from soulful ballads to experimental beats. I'm always exploring new sounds, revisiting old favorites, and letting each song tell its own story. For me, music is more than something to hear it’s something to feel, to live, and to share.
