# 1 - The Mystics Dream
[Verse]
A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
There that my heart is longing for
All for the love of you
[Verse]
A painting hangs on an ivy wall
Nestled in the emerald moss
The eyes declare a truce of trust
Then it draws me far away
Where deep in the desert twilight
Sand melts in pools of the sky
Darkness lays her crimson cloak
Your lamps will call call me home
[Verse]
And so it's there that my homage's due
Clutch-ed by the still of the night
Now I feel feel you move
And every breath breath is full
So it's there my homage's due
Clutch-ed by the still of the night
Even the distance feels so near
All for the love of you
[Verse]
A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
There at my heart is longing for
All for the love of you

Capo 2
[Intro]
              
              
              
[Verse]
A farmer there lived in the North Country
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
He had daughters one two three
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
These daughters they walked by the river's brim
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
The eldest pushed the youngest in
The swans swim so bonny o
[Instrumental]
         
[Verse]
"Oh sister oh sister pray lend me your hand"
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
"And I will give you house and land"
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
"I'll give you neither hand nor glove"
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
"Unless you give me your own true love"
The swans swim so bonny o
[Instrumental]
                     
[Verse]
Sometimes she sank sometimes she swam
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
Until she came to a miller's dam
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
The miller's daughter dressed in red
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
She went for some water to make her bread
The swans swim so bonny o
[Instrumental]
         
[Verse]
"Oh father oh daddy here swims a swan"
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
"It's very like a gentlewoman"
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
They laid her on the bank to dry
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
There came a harper passing by
The swans swim so bonny o
[Instrumental]
                     
[Verse]
He made harp pins of her fingers fair
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
He made harp strings of her golden hair
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
He made a harp of her breast bone
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
And straight it began to play alone
The swans swim so bonny o
[Instrumental]
         
[Verse]
He brought it to her father's hall
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
And there was the court assembled all
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
He laid the harp upon a stone
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
And straight it began to play alone
The swans swim so bonny o
[Instrumental]
                     
[Verse]
And there does sit my father the king
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
And yonder sits my mother the queen
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
And there does sit my brother Hugh
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
And by him William sweet and true
The swans swim so bonny o
[Verse]
And there does sit my false sister Anne
Hey he ho lay me Bonny down
Who drowned me for the sake of a man
The swans swim so bonny o
[Outro]

# 3 - The Dark Night Of The Soul
Capo 3
[Intro]
/
/
[Verse]
Upon a darkened night
The flame of love was burning in my breast
And by a lantern bright
I fled my house while all in quiet rest
[Verse]
Shrouded by the night
And by the secret stair I quickly fled
The veil concealed my eyes
While all within lay quiet as the dead
[Chorus]
Oh night thou was my guide
Oh night more loving than the rising sun
Oh night that joined the lover
To the beloved one
Transforming each of them into the other
[Verse]
Upon that misty night
In secrecy beyond such mortal sight
Without a guide or light
Than that which burned so deeply in my heart
[Verse]
That fire t'was led me on
And shone more bright than of the midday sun
To where he waited still
It was a place where no one else could come
[Chorus]
Oh night thou was my guide
Oh night more loving than the rising sun
Oh night that joined the lover
To the beloved one
Transforming each of them into the other
[Instrumental]
/
/
[Verse]
Within my pounding heart
Which kept itself entirely for him
He fell into his sleep
Beneath the cedars all my love I gave
[Verse]
And by the fortress walls
The wind would brush his hair against his brow
And with its smoothest hand
caressed my every sense it would allow
[Chorus]
Oh night thou was my guide
Oh night more loving than the rising sun
Oh night that joined the lover
To the beloved one
Transforming each of them into the other
[Instrumental]
/
/
/
/
[Verse]
I lost myself to him
And laid my face upon my lovers breast
And care and grief grew dim
As in the mornings mist became the light
There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair
There they dimmed amongst the lilies fair.
[Outro]

# 4 - Marrakesh Night Market
[Intro]
                           
[Verse]
They're gathered in circles the lamps light their faces
The crescent moon rocks in the sky
The poets of drumming keep heartbeats suspended
The smoke swirls up and then it dies   
[Chorus]
"Would you like my mask? Would you like my mirror?"
Cries the man in the shadowing hood
You can look at yourself you can look at each other
You can look at the face the face of your god
[Instrumental]
         
[Verse]
The stories are woven and fortunes are told
The truth is measured by the weight of your gold
The magic lies scattered on rugs on the ground
Faith is conjured in the night market's sound   
[Chorus]
"Would you like my mask? Would you like my mirror?"
Cries the man in the shadowing hood
You can look at yourself you can look at each other
You can look at the face the face of your god
[Instrumental]
                     
[Verse]
The lessons are written on parchments of paper
They're carried by horse from the river Nile
Says the shadowy voice in the firelight the cobra
Is casting the flame a winsome smile   
[Chorus]
"Would you like my mask? Would you like my mirror?"
Cries the man in the shadowing hood
You can look at yourself you can look at each other
You can look at the face the face of your god
[Outro]

# 5 - Full Circle
[Intro]
[Verse]
Stars were falling deep in the dark darkness
As prayers rose softly petals at dawn
And as I listened your voice seemed so clear
So calmly you were calling your god
[Instrumental]
La la la la la etc.   
La la la la la etc.
[Verse]
Somewhere the sun rose o'er dunes in the desert
Such was the stillness I ne'er felt before
Was this the question pulling pulling pulling you?
In your heart in your soul did you find peace there?
[Interlude]
La la la la la etc.   
La la la la la etc.
[Verse]
Elsewhere a snowfall the first in the winter
Covered the ground as the bells filled the air
You in your robes sang calling calling calling him
In your heart in your soul did you find peace there?
In your heart in your soul did you find peace there?
[Outro]

You can even add some arpeggios to make it sound better but pick the
melodic line's notes louder.
Lyrics and Chords
-------------(part 1 and 2 : then )---------------
Beloved gaze in thine own heart    
The holy tree is growing there    
>From joy the holy branches start
And all the trembling flowers they bear
The changing colors of its fruit
Have dowered the stars with merry light
The surety of its hidden root
Has planted quiet in the night
----------(part 2 only : )-----------------------------------
The shaking of its leafy head
Has given the waves their melody
And made my lips and music wed
Murmuring a wizard song for thee    
(part 1 and 2)
There the Loves a circle go
The flaming circle of our days
Gyring spiring to and fro
In those great ignorant leafy ways
(part 2 only)
Remembering all that stroken hair
And how the wingled sandal dart     
Thine eye grow full of tender cares
Beloved gaze in thine own heart   
(part 1 and 2)
Gaze no more in the bitter glass
The demons with their subbtle guile
Lift up before us when they pass
Or only gaze a little while       
(part 2 only)
For there a fatal image grows
That the stormy night receives
Roots half hidden under snows
Broken boughs and blackened leaves     
(part 1 and 2)
For all things turns to bareness
In the dim glass the demon hold          
The glass of outer weariness
Made when God slept in time of old     
(part 2 only)
There through the broken branches go
The ravens of unresting thought
Flying crying to and fro     
Cruel claws and hungry throat
Or else they stand and sniff the wind
And shake their ragged wings : alas!
Thy tender eyes grow all unkind
Gaze no more in the bitter glass
(part 1 and 2)
Beloved gaze in thine own heart  
The holy tree is growing there
From joy the holy branches start
And all the trembling flowers they bear
(part 2 only)
Remembering all that shaken hair
And how the winged sandal care
Beloved gaze in thine own heart

# 8 - Prospero's Speech
[Intro]
[Verse]
Now my charms all overthrown
And what strength I have's mine own
Which is most faint now 'tis true__
I must be here confined by you
[Verse]
But release me from my bands
With the help of your good hands
Gentle breath of yours my sails__
Must fill or else my project fails
Which was to please
[Verse]
Which was to please now I want__
Spirits to enforce art to enchant
And my ending is despair__
Unless I be relieved by prayer
[Verse]
Which pierces so that it assaults
Mercy itself and frees all faults
As you from crimes would pardoned be___
Let your indulgence set me free
