But I no shape or form
As a spirit

As was told in of old
To the of immortals
Marble white and purest

I see the gods in rage on high
Thunderbolts the sky

A fell, a sudden peace
The warriors my silent cry
And their struggle, mystified

But they heard my story
And they wondered, and sad

On a world of and fear
Its surface
Into sorry

Then they at last to me
'we call you Cygnus,
The God of balance you be'

We can our road together
If our are all the same
We can run alone and
If we a different aim

Let the truth of be lighted
Let the of truth shine clear

Armed sense and liberty
With the heart and mind
In a perfect sphere
