For each extatic instant We must an anguish pay In keen and quivering ratio To the extasy To the extasy To the extasy To the extasy XTC X 9 For each beloved hour Sharp pitances of years Bitter contested farthings And coffers heaped with tears And coffers heaped with tears To the extasy To the extasy To the extasy To the extasy XTC X 16 For each extatic instant We must an anguish pay In keen and quivering ratio To the extasy To the extasy To the extasy To the extasy

A slash of blue / a sweep of gray Some scarlet patches / on the way A little purple / slipped between Some ruby trowsers / hurried on A wave of gold / A bank of day This just makes out / the morning sky This a new morning sky I should not dare / to leave my friend Because because / if he should die While I was gone / and I – too late Should reach the heart / that wanted me My heart would wish / it broke before My heart would wish / it broke before This a new morning sky

Poor little heart ! Did they forget you ? Then dinna care ! Then dinna care ! Proud little heart ! Did they forsake you ? Frail little heart ! I would not break you Could’st credit me ? Could’st credit Gay little heart Like morning glory Wind and sun Wilt you array Pauvre petit cœur Ils t’ont oublié ? Eh bien ne t’en soucie Ne t’en soucie Fier petit cœur Ils t’ont abandonné ? Frêle petit cœur Je ne voulais pas te briser Peux-tu me prêter foi ? Peux-tu me prêter foi ? Joyeux petit cœur Comme le volubilis Le vent et le soleil te pareront.

When we sit, silent, are we men ? When we sit, silent, are we men ? When we sit, silent, are we men ? Let them know that we are men Let them know that we are men Let them know that we are men Let them know that we are men Let them know that we are man Let them know we are heroes Born to end slavery Let them know we are Heroes Born to end slavery Let them know we are heroes Born to end slavery When we sit, silent, are we men ? When we sit, silent, are we men ? Born to end slavery When we sit, silent, are we men ? When we sit, silent, are we men ?
