Song of Himself

[00:29.26] How time does gambol on
[00:36.17] With countless comings of the dawn
[00:41.98]
[00:44.19] With the banishing of night
[00:51.28] By transcendent rays of light
[00:57.62] Sing a song of gilded golden sun
[01:04.73] Of the dawning of a day begun
[01:12.08] That will never, never come
[01:16.89] Won't come again
[01:22.50] Who knew the blossom and the swelling seed?
[01:30.00] Who named the numberless shades of green?
[01:37.46] Who stopped to linger in the path?
[01:45.03] Who saw the world in a blade of grass?
[01:51.26] Come, sing your song son, native born and bred
[01:59.22] In a mother tongue so long, unsung, unsaid
[02:06.45] Set us free (ooh)
[02:09.95] Set us free
[02:13.88] With love above all causes
[02:16.98] Laws and creeds
[02:21.46] Your song, it will be sung
[02:25.77] And sung again
[02:30.56]
[03:00.86] Electric surge of words that ebbed and flowed
[03:08.02] The likes of which, the world had never known
[03:14.91] And will never, never come
[03:19.96] Won't come again
[03:25.84] All the fools and all the thieves
[03:33.38] All the cursed and the diseased
[03:40.45] Fallen daughters and wayward sons
[03:47.69] Your arms embracing everyone
[03:53.82] Come sing your song of love bold, brave and proud
[04:02.08] Love that has no shame, that knows no doubt
[04:08.93] Set us free (ooh)
[04:12.39] Set us free
[04:16.05] With words conferred by ghost, by poetry
[04:23.83] At the dawning of the sun
[04:29.37] You multitude of one, your song, it will be sung
[04:39.68] And sung again
[04:42.23]
