Lyrics for Julius Caesar (Memento Hodie)

Amidst water lily fields, white and green, grows a tree And from the tree hang apples Not for you to eat In a way it matters more Than it did before To see the East voyaging through True hearts of dunes Mirth, birth, reverie There in harmony Somersault caravans of fools As he passes for reply To sing his songs again He sways to kiss the horizontal ground And from the ground, a dove rises And as a mark of honor A mask is left behind Mirth, birth, reverie There in harmony To gentle form and noble force Calm and vast, his voice cascades From his gentle stage Calm and vast, the city lies On a horizontal ground Kind and calm, Julius lies For Octavian to prevail Mirth, birth, reverie In harmony Traverses the peninsula Aeolus with his whisper-winds to strike With his gentle kisses The righteous and wise And doom ambitious praise with his will His will and order Mirth, birth, reverie Amidst water lily fields, white and green, grows a tree And from the tree hang apples Not for you to eat Beneath the heaving sea Where statues and pillars and stone altars Rest for all these aching bones To guide us far from energy Mirth, birth, reverie
