Текст песни: Raise The Veil + перевод

Now here I sit on a couch by the fire

wondering where is the fruit tree

I am just simply an old tired poet

waiting for the apple to drop tonight

Is Leonard Cohen divinely inspired

under the fruit tree and lotus

down from the greater consciousness

And if the angels circle my head

come let them sit on my shoulder

For I am not here just for my service

I have been put here to

Raise the veil, between you and me

between the Muslims and Christians

between self-righteous who conquered the serfs

earning more profits, and saving the earth

There is a light in our unconscious vision

There is a bridge that connects each decision

I am not simply here for my service

I have been put here to

Raise the veil, between you and me

between the guilt and confession

between the mortals and flowers of light

between the soldiers and worthiness of life

between the verse, the and verse

liberty and the possession

connecting everything to the divine

through this tiny fruit a-furring of mine
