Apollo taught me to rhyme,<br />
Orpheus taught me to play,<br />
Andromeda casts down her sign,<br />
And Vega lights my way.<br />
Smoke rings in a galaxy,<br />
An endless flight through time<br />
Lyra gave her harp to him<br />
And left him free to climb.<br />
A winter's journey from the moon<br />
To reach the summer sun,<br />
To rise again, to sing for you<br />
A song that's yet unsung.<br />
Apollo taught me to rhyme,<br />
Orpheus taught me to play,<br />
Andromeda casts down her sign,<br />
And Vega lights my way.<br />

Wind Song<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the whisper <strong>of</strong> our mother the earth<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the hand <strong>of</strong> our father the sky<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind watches over our struggles and pleasures<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the goddess who first learned to fly<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the bearer <strong>of</strong> bad and good tidings<br />
<strong>The</strong> weaver <strong>of</strong> darkness, the bringer <strong>of</strong> dawn<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind gives the rain, then builds us a rainbow<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the singer when sang the first song<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is a twister <strong>of</strong> anger and warning<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind brings the fragrance <strong>of</strong> freshly mown hay<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is a racer, a wild stallion running<br />
<strong>The</strong> sweet taste <strong>of</strong> love on a slow summer’s day<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind knows the songs <strong>of</strong> the cities and canyons<br />
<strong>The</strong> thunder <strong>of</strong> mountains, the roar <strong>of</strong> the sea<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the taker and giver <strong>of</strong> mornings<br />
<strong>The</strong> wind is the symbol <strong>of</strong> all that is free<br />
So welcome the wind and the wisdom she <strong>of</strong>fers<br />
Follow her summons when she calls again<br />
In your heart and your spirit let the breezes surround you<br />
Lift up your voice then and sing with the wind<br />
By Bob Dylan<br />
Blowing in the Wind<br />
How many roads must a man walk down<br />
Before you call him a man?<br />
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail<br />
Before she sleeps in the sand?<br />
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly<br />
Before they're forever banned?<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer is blowin' in the wind.<br />
How many times must a man look up<br />
Before he can see the sky?<br />
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have<br />
Before he can hear people cry?<br />
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows<br />
347<br />
That too many people have died?<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer is blowin' in the wind.<br />
How many years can a mountain exist<br />
Before it's washed to the sea?<br />
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist<br />
Before they're allowed to be free?<br />
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,<br />
Pretending he just doesn't see?<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer is blowin' in the wind.<br />
Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right<br />
By Bob Dylan<br />
It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe<br />
It don't matter, anyhow<br />
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe<br />
If you don't know by now<br />
When your rooster crows at the break <strong>of</strong> dawn<br />
Look out your window and I'll be gone<br />
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on<br />
Don't think twice, it's all right<br />
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe<br />
That light I never knowed<br />
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe<br />
I'm on the dark side <strong>of</strong> the road<br />
Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say<br />
To try and make me change my mind and stay<br />
We never did too much talkin' anyway<br />
So don't think twice, it's all right<br />
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal<br />
Like you never did before<br />
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal<br />
I can't hear you any more<br />
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' all the way down the road<br />
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told<br />
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul<br />
But don't think twice, it's all right<br />
I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe<br />
Where I'm bound, I can't tell<br />
But goodbye's too good a word, gal<br />
So I'll just say fare thee well<br />
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind<br />
You could have done better but I don't mind<br />
You just kinda wasted my precious time<br />
But don't think twice, it's all right<br />
By Bob Dylan<br />
Mr. Tambourine Man<br />
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,<br />
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.<br />
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,<br />
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.<br />
Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,<br />
Vanished from my hand,<br />
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.<br />
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,<br />
I have no one to meet<br />
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.
