High vibration go onTo the sun, oh let my heart dreamingPast a mortal as meWhere can I be?
Wish the sun to stand stillReaching out to touch our own beingPast all mortal as weHere we can beHere we can be
Suns high streams throughAwaken gentle mass touchAwaken gentle mass touch
Strong dreams reign hereAwaken gentle mass touchAwaken gentle mass touchingAwaken gentle mass touch
Star, song, age, lessAwaken gentle mass touchAwaken gentle mass touchingAwaken gentle mass touching

Workings of man set to ply out historical lifeReregaining the flower of the fruit of his treeAll awakening, all restoring you
Workings of man crying out from the fire set aflameBy his blindness to see that the warmth of his beingIs promised for his seeing his reaching so clearly
Workings of man driven far from the pathRereleased in inhibitions so that all is left for youAll is left for you, all is left for youAll this left for you now
Master of imagesSongs cast a light on youHark through dark tiesThat tunnel us outOf sane existenceIn challenge as directAs eyes see young stars assemble
