1
We were going to see the world
2
In this land
3
We placed Baptismal fonts
4
And an infinite number were baptized
5
And they called us "Carabi"
6
Which means "Men of Great Wisdom"
7
Where are you going,
8
And are you going anywhere?
9
Where are you going
10
Send me a letter, if you go at all
11
Ahh, the salvation of souls,
12
But wisdom we had not
13
For these people had neither King nor Lord
14
And bowed to no one
15
And they had lived in their own liberty
16
Where are you going,
17
And are you going anywhere?
18
Going in circles
19
Going in circles, anywhere
20
I saw the new
21
The inconstant shifting of fortune
22
And now I write to you
23
Words that have not been written
24
Words from the New World
25
Tracing the circles
26
Moving across my eyes
27
Lying on a ship
28
And gazing at the western skies
29
Tracing lazy circles in the sky
30
Hey!
31
Wake Up!
32
Wake Up!
33
Where are you going,
34
And are you going anywhere?
35
Where are you going
36
Send me a letter, if you go at all
37
It's such a delight
38
To watch them dance
39
Be it sacrifice or romance
40
Free of all the things that we hold dear
41
Is that clear, Your Excellency?
42
And I guess it's time to go but
43
I gotta send you just a few more lines
44
From the New World
45
Tracing the circles
46
Moving across my eyes
47
Lying on a ship
48
And gazing at the western skies
49
Tracing lazy circles in the sky
50
Tracing lazy circles in the sky
51
Tracing lazy circles
52
And the sky opened
53
And we laid down our armor
54
And we danced
55
Naked as they
56
Baptized in the rain
57
Of the New World
