|
The dissonant bells of the sea |
|
Who are ringing the rhymes of the deep |
|
As they sing of the ages asleep |
|
Not so near or so far |
|
And the old masters wind of the waves |
|
Sped forth for the free men and slaves |
|
Whispers of secrets it saves |
|
And about whom they are |
|
And the workings of sunshine and rain |
|
And the visions they paint that remain |
|
Pulsate from my soul through my brain |
|
In a Spanish guitar |
|
The beggar whom sits in the street |
|
On his miserable throne of defeat |
|
Envisions no wealth there to meet |
|
Thinking nowhere is far |
|
And the laughter of children employed |
|
By the fantasies not yet destroyed |
|
By the dogmas of those they avoid |
|
Knowing not what they are |
|
And the right and the wrong and insane |
|
And the answers they cannot explain |
|
Pulsate from my soul through my brain |
|
In a Spanish guitar |
|
To play on a Spanish guitar |
|
With the sun shining down where you are |
|
Skipping and singing a bar |
|
From the music around |
|
Just to laugh through the columns of trees |
|
To soar like a seagull in breeze |
|
To stand in the rain if you please |
|
Or to never be found |
