[00:00.72]this life of man is but a span
[01:01.77]we all come down in fields of rape
[01:15.03]our little eyes do glitter like the sun
[01:23.61]but the leaves do wither
[01:28.38]and the branches decay
[01:38.07]and all are born of
[01:38.46]will soon fall away
[01:44.34]he gave me honey
[01:47.85]all mixed with gold
[01:54.84]he gave me words
[01:55.35]envowed with awe
[01:58.68]he gave me a delicate gown to wear
[02:05.94]all stitched with sorrow
[02:09.12]and hemmed with fear
[02:13.26]and twisted steel and broken wheels
[02:17.58]in a million years ten million years
[02:20.94]i curse all gold and silver
[02:29.58]this life of man is but a span
[03:19.86]we all come down in fields of rape
[03:20.58]as thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit
[03:23.91]nor how the bones do grow
[03:27.54]in the womb of her that is with child
[03:31.92]even so thou knowest not the words of God who maketh all
[03:39.57]in the morning sow thy seed
[03:43.11]and in the evening withhold and apprehend
[03:46.89]for thou knowest not whether she'll prosper
[03:50.61]this or that
[03:52.11]or whether they should both be
[03:58.83]in a million years ten million years
[04:19.38]i curse all gold and silver
[04:39.00]remember now thy creator in the days of life
[04:44.04]how evil days come out
[04:46.50]and the years go by
[04:47.31]then thou shalt see
[04:47.70]i had no pleasure
[04:49.11]how the sun or the light
[04:58.71]or the moon and the stars be all darkened
[05:03.90]how the clouds return after the rain
[05:09.57]in the day when the kings of the house shall tremble
[05:14.04]and the strong men shall bow themselves
[05:18.39]and the quiet de-cease for there are few
[05:23.94]and those who are gone to the windows be darkened
[05:29.16]and the door shall be shut on the streets
[05:32.10]when the sound of the quiet days
[05:37.44]and we shall summon the voice of the birds
[05:40.80]and all the daughters of music
[05:42.51]shall be brought low
[05:46.44]and men shall be afraid of that which is high
[05:50.79]and fear shall be in the way
[05:54.60]and the almond tree shall flourish
[05:57.87]and the grasshopper shall be a burden
[06:01.65]and desire shall fail
[06:05.04]because man goeth to his long home
[06:08.25]and the mourners go about the streets
[06:14.25]or ever the silver gone be loose
[06:18.15]or the golden bone be broken
[06:21.33]or the pigeon be broken at the fountain
[06:24.60]or the wheel broken in the system
[06:29.13]then shall the dust return to the earth as it was
[06:33.87]and the spirit shall return into God who gave it
