Tune of the Bani |
||
1 | I've been here and I've been there and | |
2 | Watch the weather falls | |
3 | Just like a letter from heaven | |
4 | Running up the alleys | |
5 | Thunder in the valleys | |
6 | Above the walls | |
7 | And over the garden | |
8 | I've seen this and I've seen that and | |
9 | Alabaster halls | |
10 | Filled with the whispers of wise men | |
11 | Poring in the windows | |
12 | Lightning in the shadows | |
13 | 'Till morning calls | |
14 | And finds me all golden | |
15 | Futures passing all in all | |
16 | And all the time | |
17 | Weather falls | |
18 | With the devil on the one hand | |
19 | On the other the deep blue sea | |
20 | And I'm dancing in the middle | |
21 |
To the tune of the Bani |
|
22 | The sunrise and the sunset and | |
23 | Surely in between | |
24 | Is something more than illusion | |
25 | Here the hour found us | |
26 | Turning all around us | |
27 | Where freedom falls away from confusion. | |
28 | Count the world and images and | |
29 | All these things I've seen | |
30 | Seem like a weighty allusion | |
31 | Dig: the fog conceals it | |
32 | And the sound reveals it | |
33 | At last it crawls | |
34 | Into this conclusion: | |
35 | Futures passing all in all | |
36 | And all the time | |
37 | Weather falls | |
38 | With the devil on the one hand | |
39 | On the other the deep blue sea | |
40 | And I'm dancing in the middle | |
41 |
To the tune of the Bani |
|
42 | Like a wave upon the ocean | |
43 | And opening before my eyes | |
44 | Wherein the universal motion | |
45 |
The nexus lies |
|
46 | Light blue light for conversation | |
47 | Lavender so so silently | |
48 | Golden light of all creation | |
49 | And touches me | |
50 |
With the tune of the Bani |
|
51 | I've been rich and I've been poor and | |
52 | Really am the same | |
53 | As in these lines I have written | |
54 | Just a vague suggestion | |
55 | In answer to a question | |
56 | The writer stalls | |
57 | On words yet unspoken | |
58 | I've seen joy and I've seen pain and | |
59 | living in my name | |
60 | Are shades of roses and lichen | |
61 | The cities of Urantia | |
62 | Memories of Lemuria | |
63 | Like crystal balls | |
64 | And doors that stand open | |
65 | Futures passing all in all | |
66 | And all the time | |
67 | Weather falls | |
68 | With the devil on the one hand | |
69 | On the other the deep blue sea | |
70 | And I'm dancing in the middle | |
71 |
To the tune of the Bani |
