Both blinded and enchanted by the light,
Sidelong like the glances of a spy.
I saw a flock of geese high on their flight
The Hebrew slaves from Egypt in their plight
Left with little but their infants wise,
Wandering in the desert’s heat and light
Oh, easy is it for the birds to reach the heights
While refugees can suffer, drown and die
I saw a dozen swans pass on their flight
For the poor, there are few equal rights
And mothers with their little children cry
Both blinded and diminished in the light
Will the Lord enchant us with delight,
Or punish our false greed till hearts ignite?
I saw a cloud of angels show His might
As we live on the earth like parasites
Forgot not that revenge may come by night.
Both wounded and entreated by the light,.
I saw that we conformed without a fight
