I hear that the emperor of china used to wear iron shoes with ease We are the tablecloth and also the table also the fable of the dancing leaves The new moon is rising the axe of the thunder is broken As never was not since the flood nor yet since the world began The new moon is shining the angels are washing their windows Above the years whose jumble sale goes spinning on below Ask the snail beneath the stone, ask the stone beneath the wall Are there any stars at all Like an eagle in the sky tell me if air is strong In the floating pan pipe victories of the golden harvest Safe in the care of the dear moon The new moon is rising the eyelid of god is approaching The humane train the skating raining travelling voice of certainty The new moon is shining the harmonious hand is now holding lord krishna's ring The eagle's wing the voice of mother everything Ask the snail beneath the stone, ask the stone beneath the wall Are there any stars at all Like an eagle in the sky tell me if air is strong
