Maya - The Incredible String Band[00:00:00]
Dust of the rivers does murmur and weep[00:00:01]
Hard and sharp laughter that cuts to the bone[00:00:08]
Ah but every face within your face does show[00:00:17]
Going gladly now to give himself his own[00:00:27]
And twelve yellow willows shall fellow the shallows[00:00:37]
Small waves and thunder be my pillow[00:00:44]
Upon the gleaming water two swans that swim[00:00:52]
And every place shall be my native home[00:01:03]
The east gate like a fortress dissolve it away[00:01:29]
The west gate like a prison oh come break it down[00:01:36]
Island I remember living here[00:01:44]
Wandering beneath the empty skies[00:01:54]
In time her hair grew long and swept the ground[00:02:03]
And seven blackbirds carried it out behind[00:02:10]
It bore the holy imprint of her mind[00:02:18]
As greenfoot slow she moved among the seasons[00:02:28]
The great man the great man[00:02:52]
Historians his memory[00:02:55]
Artists his senses thinkers his brain[00:02:57]
Labourers his growth explorers his limbs[00:03:02]
And soldiers his death each second[00:03:06]
And mystics his rebirth each second[00:03:11]
Businessmen his nervous system[00:03:15]
No-hustle men his stomach[00:03:19]
Astrologers his balance lovers his loins[00:03:24]
His skin it is all patchy[00:03:28]
But soon will reach one glowing hue[00:03:30]
God is his soul infinity his goal[00:03:35]
The mystery his source[00:03:39]
And civilisation he leaves behind[00:03:40]
Opinions are his fingernails[00:03:45]
Maya Maya all this world is but a play[00:03:50]
Be thou the joyful player[00:04:02]
Maya Maya all this world is but a play[00:04:07]
Be thou the joyful player[00:04:20]
The wanderer no sense does make[00:04:46]
His eyes being tied in the true love's knot[00:04:52]
The trees perceive his soul[00:05:00]
Do not detain him long[00:05:10]
Dear little animal dark-eyed and small[00:05:20]
Caring for your fur with pointed paws[00:05:27]
This hawk of truth is swift and flies with a still cry[00:05:35]
A small sweet meat to the eyes of night[00:05:46]
Oh dandelion be thou thine[00:06:10]
Reflecting the sun in sexual glory[00:06:17]
In ever changing tongues[00:06:24]
The ever changing story[00:06:35]
The book man bird woman serpent sea sun[00:06:44]
Blessed oh blessed are they of the air[00:06:52]
Your eyes they are the eyes of the glad land[00:07:00]
Ye twelve that will enter the seasons[00:07:13]
The great ship the ship of the world long time sailing[00:07:37]
Mariners mariners gather your skills[00:07:42]
The great ship the ship of the world long time sailing[00:07:47]
Mariners mariners gather your skills[00:07:51]
Jesus and Hitler and Richard the lion heart[00:07:56]
Three kings and Moses and Queen Cleopatra[00:08:00]
The Cobbler the maiden the mender and the maker[00:08:05]
The sickener and the twitcher and the glad undertaker[00:08:09]
The shepherd of willows[00:08:13]
The harper and the archer[00:08:16]
All sat down in one boat together[00:08:23]
Troubled voyage in calm weather[00:08:38]
Maya Maya all this world is but a play[00:08:51]
Be thou the joyful player[00:09:04]
Maya Maya all this world is but a play[00:09:09]
