Little by little the night turns around    

Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn

Lotuses lean on each other in yearning           (en a)

Over the hills a swallow is resting

e  /a  g  g\f  e  x 2

  Set the controls for the heart of the sun


Over the mountains watching the watcher

Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine

Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow

Love is the shadow that ripens the wine


  Set the controls for the heart of the sun

  d   e
  The heart of the sun  x n

  ...


Witness the man who waves at the wall

Making the shape of his question to heaven

Whether the sun will fall in the evening

Will he remember the lesson of giving


  Set the controls for the heart of the sun

  The heart of the sun  x n
