[00:00.00] 作词 : Cohen, Sainte-Marie
[00:00.00] 作曲 : Michael Czajkowski
[00:00.00] God is alive; Magic is afoot
[00:23.22]God is alive; Magic is afoot
[00:30.75]God is afoot; Magic is alive
[00:33.33]Alive is afoot.
[00:36.42]Magic never died.
[00:40.35]God never sickened;
[00:42.39]many poor men lied
[00:44.34]many sick men lied
[00:46.29]Magic never weakened
[00:48.09]Magic never hid
[00:49.92]Magic always ruled
[00:51.93]God is afoot
[00:53.85]God never died.
[00:57.90]God was ruler
[00:59.58]Though his funeral lengthened
[01:01.77]Though his mourners thickened
[01:03.69]Magic never fled
[01:05.70]Though his shrouds were hoisted
[01:07.56]the naked God did live
[01:09.57]Though his words were twisted
[01:11.52]the naked Magic thrived
[01:13.71]Though his death was published
[01:15.75]round and round the world
[01:17.70]the heart did not believe
[01:22.05]Many hurt men wondered
[01:24.12]many struck men bled
[01:26.13]Magic never faltered
[01:28.14]Magic always led.
[01:30.12]Many stones were rolled
[01:32.07]but God would not lie down
[01:34.23]Many wild men lied
[01:36.33]many fat men listened
[01:38.37]Though they offered stones
[01:40.47]Magic still was fed
[01:42.54]Though they locked their coffers
[01:45.03]God was always served.
[01:47.40]Magic is afoot. God rules.
[01:50.49]Alive is afoot. Alive is in command.
[01:54.00]Many weak men hungered
[01:56.04]Many strong men thrived
[01:58.71]Though they boasted solitude
[02:01.23]God was at their side
[02:03.36]Nor the dreamer in his cell
[02:05.46]nor the captain on the hill
[02:07.50]Magic is alive
[02:09.51]Though his death was pardoned
[02:11.55]round and round the world
[02:13.62]the heart did not believe.
[02:17.34]Though laws were carved in marble
[02:19.65]they could not shelter men
[02:21.60]Though altars built in parliaments
[02:23.76]they could not order men
[02:25.80]Police arrested Magic
[02:27.78]and Magic went with them,
[02:30.27]for Magic loves the hungry.
[02:34.74]But Magic would not tarry
[02:37.89]it moves from arm to arm
[02:40.56]it would not stay with them
[02:42.96]Magic is afoot
[02:44.88]it cannot come to harm
[02:47.04]it rests in an empty palm
[02:49.11]it spawns in an empty mind
[02:51.30]but Magic is no instrument
[02:53.67]Magic is the end.
[02:56.61]Many men drove Magic
[02:59.01]but Magic stayed behind
[03:01.86]Many strong men lied
[03:04.11]they only passed through Magic
[03:06.57]and out the other side
[03:09.09]Many weak men lied
[03:11.04]they came to God in secret
[03:13.11]and though they left him nourished
[03:15.30]they would not tell who healed
[03:17.49]Though mountains danced before them
[03:19.71]they said that God was dead
[03:22.14]Though his shrouds were hoisted
[03:24.09]the naked God did live
[03:26.55]This I mean to whisper to my mind
[03:29.73]This I mean to laugh with in my mind
[03:32.82]This I mean my mind to serve 'til
[03:35.10]service is but Magic
[03:36.81]moving through the world
[03:38.34]and mind itself is Magic
[03:40.38]coursing through the flesh
[03:42.09]and flesh itself is Magic
[03:44.52]dancing on a clock
[03:46.62]and time itself the magic length of God
