The Incredible String Band - Waltz of the New Moon lyrics
[The Incredible String Band - Waltz of the New Moon lyrics]
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
In the floating palaces
Of the spinning castle
May the fire king's daughter
Bring water to you
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
In the floating palaces
Of the spinning castle
May the fire king's daughter
Bring water to you
