Born too early
To a world at noon
Our dreams of glory
Too much too soon

One generation
Born after the greats
Our aspirations came
Too little Too late

My children I beg of you
Keep my dreams strong
To see all the worlds
Where I should belong

And should come the time
At the break of new dawn
When my home and people
Are all dead and gone

Carry me with you
To the edge of beyond
Scatter my ashes
Where hopes are reborn
