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

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

They battled the ages
But neither force would yield
The were divided,
Every a battlefield
Every soul a

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

I find you food and shelter
Show you fire to you warm
Through the winter storm
You can live in grace and
In the world that you

The were delighted
Coming forth to claim prize
ran to build their cities
And converse among the

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

The wise men consulted
And the bridge of death was
In of Dionysus
To find out they had lost

I bring love to you solace
In the of the night
In the Heart's light
You need only trust feelings
Only love can steer you

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

The cities abandoned,
And the forests echoed
They danced and lived as
They love could not be wrong

Food and wine they had
And they slept the stars
The people contented
And the Gods watched afar

But the winter fell them
And it them unprepared,
Bringing wolves and cold
And the hearts of men

The Universe
As the heart and collided
the people left unguided
For so many troubled
In a cloud of and fears,
Their was torn asunder into hollow hemispheres

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

who did not fight
Brought tales of old to
My Rocinante' by night
On her final

To the heart of Cygnus' fearsome
We set our
Spiraled through that space
To immortal place

I have and awareness
But I have no or form
As a spirit
I am and yet unborn

I have into Olympus
As was in tales of old
To the city of
white and purest gold

I see the in battle rage on high,
across the sky
I cannot move, I hide
I a silent scream begin inside

Then all at once the chaos
A stillness fell, a peace
The felt my silent cry
And their struggle, mystified

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

Looking down Olympus
On a of doubt and fear
Its surface
sorry hemispheres
They sat a in silence
And then turned at last to me
We will you Cygnus,
The God of you shall be

We can walk our road
If our goals are all the
We can run alone and
If we pursue a aim

Let the truth of be lighted
Let the of truth shine clear
Sensibility, armed with and liberty
With the heart and mind united in a single sphere
