He takes a fiddlestick and gently
Starts to caress his violin,
Creating magic sounds intently
That take all those around him in.
A miracle enfolds our bodies,
The real world exists no more
When into music he embodies
What was concealed in him before.
Celestial, amazing beauty
Flows to our ears from fairy lands,
Enchanting splendor that’s on duty
Of his divinely gifted hands.
And in our world that’s getting rougher,
By shedding music from above,
He comforts those who deeply suffer,
Inspires those who are in love.
This man’s a gift the world desires.
His talent makes our hearts rejoice.
So strongly humankind admires
And loves his soul’s amazing voice.
