Metanoia
Canticle
Behold, thou art fair, my love, thou art fair
Thou hast doves eyes within thy locks
Thy hair is as a flock of goats
that appear from mount Gilead
Thou art beatiful, o my love, as Tirzah,
comely as Jerusalem,
terrible as an army with banners
Thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead
Thou art all fair, my love,
there is no spot in thee
A garden inclosed is my sister, my spose,
A spring shut up, a fountain sealed
Thou art beatiful, o my love, as Tirzah,
comely as Jerusalem,
terrible as an army with banners
Thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
That ye stir not up,
nor awake my love,
Until she please…
Thou art all fair, my love,
there is no spot in thee
A garden inclosed is my sister, my spose,
A spring shut up, a fountain sealed
Rules
Stucked in traffic I see colours
Terryfing me
Hearing voices of this cold war
Makes me so angry
Even if you resemble me a bit
We are not the same
But what we have in common is
A nature to change
You don’t have to force your eyes to
Look into the darkness
You may choose the way you want to
Live, you have got this chance
Just open your mind
Make up your mind
Listen to the wind from Eastern Side
That wishpers the Truth
Find a power in saing good-bye to
Your egoistic rules
You don’t have to force your eyes to
Look into the darkness
You may choose the way you want to
Live, you have got this chance
You don’t have to force your eyes to
Look into the darkness
Just open your mind
Look around
In tenderness of your fingers
I forget my existence
I’m loosing myself
In multitude of your hair
I guess our bodies are
too warm too fragile
To fly over there
where once we were born
So we are here
Meant for the life we’re living
Now I understood why
We’ve been given joy and pain.
No suffering in vain.
I found the moment
To experience in Time –
-I look around
Look around
We’ve got so much
to find Look around
So we are here
Meant for the life we’re living
Now I understood why
We’ve been given joy and pain.
No suffering in vain.
I found the moment
To experience in Time –
-I look around
Look around
We’ve got so much
to find Look around
Tirzah
In struggle
Come what may
Our long travel home
I’m taking you with me
Cross the deserts of emotions
Through their rough seas
I feel the light transcends me
And I know where to go
I want to see in your eyes
That you are ready to follow
Come what may let yourself
Open for the sky
Wash away who you think you are
I know we’ll survive
Are you ready to follow?
Come what may let yourself
Open for the sky
Wash away who you think you are
I know we’ll survive
The moment
Even though there were no You
beside me
I learned how to breath with such a
space around
But now
Just stay
The air sounds symphony
Stay
Than would be easier to search for
the Light
As I followed on my own the deep paths
on the shore
I experienced trust in the sand
And I could go
But now
Just stay
The air sounds symphony
Stay
Than would be easier to search for
the Light
But this time
Stay
Wind from the east
The day after
I hide my shame
behind the silence
Flashbacks from those days
Are so distant, so odd…
The riddle got solved
I even don’t know how
But it doesn’t really matter now…
I look straight into your eyes
You make me realize
There’s no need to turn back
In mistic love we share
I drove all night to get to you
In my dreams I see you awaiting
I pass your gate,
I open your door
I find you sleeping,
Awake
I look straight into your eyes
You make me realize
There’s no need to turn back
In mistic love we share
