Guiding Star

歌詞

Set sail by the guiding star Where the moonlight dance the water He's cast his nets - so wide so far For all these sons and daughters He spreads his wings - my guiding star Nails his truth to the conscience tree Casts his net so wide and far That never more can we be free Can we be free - can we be free? Black train waits in the early morn Black wings eclipse the sun And they shout so loud at the little ones They say: "Madam, what d'you take us for? Barbarians?" Barbarians So spread your wings my guiding star Shine forth upon the living waters The Promised Land so near so far For all lost sons and daughters Across the water Across the water Finds their clothes in the early morn Black clouds hang on the horizon Bags unpacked but all have gone And none to mourn or find them - find them So come for me my burning star An arc across the water If I've traveled free - I've traveled far In the shadow of self-slaughter Sail on my guiding star Across the water Across the water Across the water Across the water Across the water Across the water
