andhyaro lai chaati ma berechu
kuwa ko paani ma juna lai herechu
mero ta aakha ajhai ni banda cha
hawa ma ajhai ni barud ko gandha cha
hamro purkha ko ahit bhayo re
ma sangai hurkeko sahid bhayo re
sapana aai khai k k bhanda cha
hawa ma ajhai ni barud ko gandha cha

kaha matrai khojina ra maile
hidera puginey sabai tira
udna matrai jaaneko bhaye
barrack ko gate kaati aauthe
hareka gau sahar pugne
baadal chadne geet gaudai
nau dada saata samundra tarthye
kaha matrai khojina ra maile
chaina timi bhanne haru le
kasari matra bhanna sakey
chup chap man bhitra bhitrai
timi lai sapani dekhi rahey
sabai kura bhuli sakthye
aakha maa talpaline
aasu sabai sadhai ko laagi
sadhai ko laagi bagai sakthye
kaha matrai khojina ra maile

dhule angana maa
gham kaa charka thopa
susteri hawa le
almaliyeka rittaa doka
jiwana choto cha bhanda
chalna khoje jhai lagcha
aba ta ma farkinna
aba ta ma farkinna hola
chath ko dilaimaa
baserai baadi kati sakey
sunaula aaula, chaleko dekhchu matrai
sunna chaadi sakey
jati jhaskiye pani
sapana bhitrai biujhi rahey
aba ta ma farkinna
aba ta ma farkinna hola

Queen

i was a queen
i lived on my own
i ruled nobody
so no one wanted my throne
i was a queen
but i crossed the river
and my head grew very big
you see a queen's got many troubles
and now her crown don't fit
i was a queen

oh god of destruction
go easy on me
i've built you a castle
of sand by the sea
hallelujah, oh jesus he wept
and magdalena watched over while he slept
so heavy did he dream
he built another world for you and me
now why must i split myself in two
why must i split myself for you
ive fallen, ive fallen
and now i hang by
a thread that you made of
a cloud in the sky

Island
03:26

first came the rain
it washed my sins away
then came the breeze
he had me begging please
then came the earth
he said the devil's got my soul
now come the fire
that will swallow me whole
i walked off the land
walked right off the shore
i swam to an island
where i built my home
and when she passed by
she sensed something was wrong
she thought i had an inkling
of what path we should be on
and though i might say
that i came a long way
through heaven and through hell
please and thanks i did say

Blest

my nimble knuckles
my savage raging dream
stuffed in tidy boxes
color coded scheme
nod your head
smile, smile sweetly
i who stand on the crest
who bore the wind on my chest
as the four directions turn into
twelve, sixteen
but my skin is blest
its my bullet proof vest
made of everything
i ever seen
nod your head
smile, smile sweetly

mary, mary magdalene
you've got three eyes
and your grandma's skin
you know the wars that
she was in, mary magdalene
mary, mary magdalene
everything's a fever dream
to be lost is no sin
mary magdalene
mary, mary magdalene
now you say you're hearing things
first to see your
lover's wings
mary magdalene
