Magus Perde Lyrics - A Passion Play - Jethro Tull

Hail! son of kings make the ever-dying sign 

cross your fingers in the sky for those about to be. 

there am i waiting along the sand. 

cast your sweet spell upon the land and sea. 

magus perde, take your hand from off the chain. 

loose a wish to still, the rain, the storm about to be. 

here am i (voyager into life). 

tough are the soles that tread the knife's edge. 

break the circle, stretch the line, call upon the devil. 

bring the gods, the gods' own fire 

in the conflict revel. 

the passengers upon the ferry crossing, waiting to be born, 

renew the pledge of life's long song rise to the reveille horn. 

animals queueing at the gate that stands upon the shore 

breathe the ever-burning fire that guards the ever-door. 

Man - son of man - buy the flame of ever-life 

(yours to breathe and breath the pain of living): living be! 

here am i! roll the stone away 

from the dark into ever-day.
