Qing-Feng Wu, Robin Guthrie – The Egg of Columbus
Lyrics The Egg of Columbus (english) – Qing-Feng Wu, Robin Guthrie
Driftwood is a love letter to me
A map to the golden bough
I am a verb by birth
I like to get lost off the beaten path
I stretch my body and outstretch my hand
The universe is an egg and we, the creator Pangu
Laugh and wrap it all up in a bundle
Breaking through our own shells, the Pangu that we are
Braving the boundless sea to dance
Fierce winds, great waves, nowhere to hide
Explorers grow fangs and become wild boars
Hauling the sunken earth from the ocean floor
A giant and a prophet are his parents
Earth is an egg in which lies Columbus
The parrot broods slowly and guards secretly
Columbus breaks through his shell and makes great strides
Crossing oceans to reach new land
Rocks and tulips grow out of his head
Climbing the skies to seek the Great Beginning
He is stupid enough to believe the world is round
Soil is round, fire is round
Mountains are round, oceans are round
Wind is round, Earth is round
Even if I limp, I will walk
Even if I smash my head, I will sound the bell
Even if I am naked, I will carry on
Fruits are round, harvest is round
Even if tomorrow the yellow flowers fade
Pens are round
Why not play the lute to a cow
Then drink wine with a pig
The ears of the stars are also round
Look ahead
He says the heart is round, it is sound…
