YES lyrics - Angkor Wat

(Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman, Jonathan Elias Out of the brightest tree)



the moon became the morning sun,

And there again reflected on the dreams of everyone.

Out of the starlight night the telling of all our lives,

And racing faster than the Northwestern World.



Starpoint to signal our endlessness

Starpoint to signal this evermore

Starpoint to compass: We look to the North

To return to the centre: Angkor Wat.



(Cambodian poetry; translation follows)



I am a child of the universe.



I deserve total recognition of this in the light of God.



Being a child of the universe,

I want to live in a world without war

I want to live in a world without starvation

I want to live in a world without pestilence

I want to live in a world of love, peace and harmony



Because I am a child of the universe.
