lirik lagu fugs – swinburne stomp
before the beginning of years
there came to the making of man
time, with a gift of tears;
grief, with a gl-ss that ran;
pleasure, with pain for leaven;
summer, with flowers that fell;
remembrance fallen from heaven,
and madness risen from h-ll;
strength without hands to smite;
love that endures for a breath:
night the shadow of light,
and life, the shadow of death.
and the high gods took in hand
fire, and the falling of tears,
and a measure of sliding sand
from under the feet of the years;
and froth and drift of the sea;
and dust of the labouring earth;
and bodies of things to be
in the houses of death and of birth;
and wrought with weeping and laughter,
and fashioned with loathing and love,
with life before and after
and death beneath and above,
for a day and a night and a morrow,
that his strength might endure for a span
with travail and heavy sorrow,
the holy spirit of man.
from the winds of the north and the south
they gathered as unto strife;
they breathed upon his mouth,
they filled his body with life;
eyesight and speech they wrought
for the veils of the soul therein,
a time for labour and thought,
a time to serve and to sin;
they gave him light in his ways,
and love, and a sp-ce for delight,
and beauty and length of days,
and night, and sleep in the night.
his speech is a burning fire;
with his lips he travaileth;
in his heart is a blind desire,
in his eyes foreknowledge of death;
he weaves, and is clothed with derision;
sows, and he shall not reap;
his life is a watch or a vision
between a sleep and a sleep.
