Last night in sleep I had a dream A beautiful dream A grand dream A
dream so much a dream It’s almost not a dream
Last night in sleep I saw life with tears in her eyes In a fight with
General Death A red battle A bloody battle A little breeze blew oo-a
oo-a I saw rain falling A big rain of words from which all speech was
springing and the lightning spirit cracking to uproot the lies and hatch
the thunder of truth
Last night in sleep I saw people starting to live as people each one
living for everyone Then like a miracle
The tears in life’s eyes dried Death stepped aside for the open gate to
let life pass and take liberty by the hand to go party to go dance Last
night in sleep the party was just great Life with her swelling breasts
was dolling out syrup into the mouths of the guests A syrup that tasted
delicious In the mouth of everyone Last night in sleep I had a dream a
beautiful dream a beautiful dream
