in purest outpoured light
shimmers the godhead of the world
in purest love towards all that is
outpours the godhood of my soul
i rest within the godhead of the world
there shall i find myself
within the godhead of the world

the sixteen gates of belacane
were open like the old clairvoyance
a diamond helmet you did not deserve
inconstancy he lived next door
a neighbor we found bitter
but when dullness, doubt and darkness dawn
i do become blessed

herzeloyde had a dream
holding her hearts sorrow
a dragon from the deep
ill wear your war wounds while i sleep
in lieu of you here next to me
god send me the noble fruit of gahmuret
parzival was born then

we tried to stop the birds from singing
they were smarter than us all
and god is brighter than the daylight
zarathustra told us so
sigune named you parzival, right through the middle
sigune named you parzival
and god was in good humor

the second time we see sigune
with the body of schianatulander
my cousin how could you not ask the question?
the second time we see sigune
under the heart shaped leaves
parzival had failed his grail initiation
three virgins of body, spirit and soul
|

source of sorrow, oppressor of joy
cundrie cursed you, such a strange creature
the damn of the double, who failed to find honor
save your shame for what is god?
in armor of iron you kissed cunneware
sorrow consumes all joy
who will come to the castle of wonders?
|
||||

his heart was a fortress in battle
and obilot took him for hers
it is better to trust women than god
according to parzival
but blessed is the fruit which was in you
he sang for god and them
and god spoke from her young mouth
|
||||

||||
at a call to arms men always come
lady antikonie lets have your advice
kings and rooks to guard yourself
they wanted your tower torn down
there were sorrows enough to weave a crown
but clear-eyed as a falcons sight
for the grail gawain was left alive
|
||||
10. |
||||
you sat on a bench by a window
and spoke to sigune, your soul
her whole life a kneeling in prayer now
then a grail horse took you to trevrizent
who told you you oughta trust god
he will help you for he must
so take that track undaunted till you tell him yes to joy
|
||||
11. |
||||
if you seek my love you will lose
dont praise too much, live warlike
orgeluse took the first boat out
but surely she had her reasons
a sunshower, she was sour and sweet
and the ferryman took you home to his family
where good fortune's still not asleep

these men were born from battle din, one flesh
that is two brothers-- you found yourself in feirefiz
a round table measured by moonlight
cundrie's mouth was a violet
which told you youd won the grail
and seven stars she named for you:
rejoice youve been called to the grail
|
||||
17. |
||||
sigune had died in a posture of prayer
god has many secrets
you have forced him by defiance
now joy has come to the castle of grail
condwiramurs wore just a smock
when parzival surprised her
was all this done for womans sake?
