Luyện nghe bài hát Cygnus X-1 Book Ii: Hemispheres I. Prelude

When our weary was young
The struggle of the ancients first
The of Love and Reason
alone to rule the fate of man

They battled through the
But still neither would yield
The were divided,
Every soul a
Every a battlefield

I bring and understanding,
I wit and wisdom fair
Precious gifts compare
We can a world of wonder
I can you all aware

I will find you and shelter
you fire to keep you warm
Through the endless storm
You can live in grace and
In the world you transform

The people delighted
Coming to claim their prize
ran to build their cities
And converse the wise

But one day the fell silent
Yet they knew not what was
The urge to build these things
not to be so strong

The wise men were
And the of death was crossed
In of Dionysus
To find out what they had

I bring love to give you
In the of the night
In the eternal light
You need only your feelings
Only love can you right

I bring laughter, I music
I joy and I bring tears
I soothe your primal fears
Throw off those of reason
And prison disappears

The were abandoned,
And the forests song
They danced and lived as
They knew love not be wrong

Food and wine they had
And they beneath the stars
The people were
And the Gods watched afar

But the winter fell them
And it them unprepared,
Bringing wolves and starvation
And the of men despaired

The Universe
As the and mind collided
With the people unguided
For so many years
In a cloud of and fears,
world was torn asunder into hollow hemispheres

Some fought themselves, some fought other
Most followed one another
and aimless like their brothers
For their hearts so unclear
And the truth not appear
Their spirits were divided into hemispheres

who did not fight
Brought of old to light
My sailed by night
On her flight

To the of Cygnus' fearsome force
We set our
Spiraled through that timeless
To immortal place

I memory and awareness
But I have no or form
As a disembodied
I am dead and yet

I have passed into
As was told in of old
To the of immortals
Marble and purest gold

I see the gods in rage on high,
across the sky
I cannot move, I cannot
I feel a scream begin inside

Then all at the chaos ceased
A fell, a sudden peace
The warriors felt my cry
And stayed their struggle,

was astonished
Dionysus me mad
But they my story further
And wondered, and were sad

down from Olympus
On a of doubt and fear
Its splintered
Into hemispheres
They sat a while in
And then they at last to me
We call you Cygnus,
The God of Balance you be

We can walk our together
If our are all the same
We can run and free
If we a different aim

Let the of love be lighted
Let the love of shine clear
Sensibility, armed with sense and
With the heart and united in a single perfect sphere
