HOME
Do you want to build
A house of flesh and bones ?
Then you will to win
The heart and soul
Against all Delphic act
Heap up your body
Upon the fire
Burn weary mist and dark
Draw a turf of
Solemn attire
Against all desire
Pray the god on high
See the cross on sky
Feel him quite at night
Sweep clearly the road inside
And in lonesome whisper
Yield to him with your affirm faith
Ask to him for heart and soul
That you want to win for your home
