The sparrow still, time gone by
Upon the hill of the capsule of life
Spinning around to unravel the mystery of history
Great the many, powerful the few, inventive the plenty
Oceans opened, loaves multiplied
Atoms apart, roaring mushrooming
Pounds of flesh, justice in Venice
Freedom in the south, march on salt lakes
Speech crying for equality
Heard from bullets betraying
The reverend and a president
Ideology betraying masses
Lying with revolutionary ideas
Crumbled wall of separation
Joining East to West nevertheless
The spirit lives, will never die
In their shadow the sparrow
Grows into an eagle
Spreading its wings on tomorrow
Guarding, liberating, smiling

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

Peace..Freedom..Liberty..Equality..Love
Justice..Compassion..Peace
Spread those Eagle wings
and fly
'round the earth.
The Doves need help.
