Hour-Glass

The old man looked at the hour-glass
and said "listen to me, fool, listen to me.
The world is full of wonders.
The world is full of dreams.
There is no time to be idle.
You cannot close your eyes any longer."

But the fool replied: "You taught me otherwise!
As a young man I saw the wonders and dreams.
I put them in my heart, which I sealed in stone.
But the wise men used their tools to break it, to tear it apart."

"Fool, you were old when you were young.
We stole all your hopes and dreams
but didn't know the treasures your heart was hiding.
Now that the sands of time slip away,
I envy you for your free mind
and the white horse you are riding."

"Listen to me, fool, the world is full of wonders.
Come on now, open your eyes
and you will see them soon

The world is full of wonders.
It is so full of wonders.
If you can see, you can see.
If you can see, you can see."

The world is full of wonders.
The world is full of wonders
The world is full of wonders.
Just look at the hour-glass.

The world is full of wonders.
The world is full of wonders
The world is full of wonders.
Just look at the hour-glass.

The world is full of wonders.
The world is full of wonders
The world is full of wonders.
Just look at the hour-glass.

The world is full of wonders.
The world is full of wonders
The world is full of wonders.
Just look at the hour-glass.
