What's Become Of the Baby |
| Waves of violet go crashing and laughing |
| The rainbow-winged singing birds fly 'round the sun |
| Sun bells rain down in a liquid profusion |
| Mermaids on porpoises draw up the dawn |
| What’s become of the baby |
| This cold December morning? |
| Songbirds |
| Frozen in their flight |
| Drifting to the earth |
| Remnants of forgotten dreaming |
| (calling…) |
| Answer comes there none |
| Go to sleep you child |
| Dream of never-ending always |
| Panes of crystal |
| Eyes sparkle like waterfalls |
| Lighting the polished ice caverns of Khan |
| But where in the looking-glass fields of illusion |
| Wandered the child who was perfect as dawn? |
| What’s become of the baby |
| This cold December morning? |
| Racing |
| Rhythms of the sun |
| All the world revolves |
| Captured in the eye of Odin |
| Allah |
| Pray, where are you now? |
| All Mohammed’s men |
| Blinded by the sparkling water |
| Scheherazade gethering stories to tell |
| From primal gold fantasy petals that fall |
| But where is the child |
| Who played with the sun chimes |
| And chased the cloud sheep |
| To the regions of rhyme? |
| Stranded |
| Cries the south wind |
| Lost in the regions of lead |
| Shackled by chains of illusion |
| Delusions of living and dead |
