《The Blind Men and the Elephant》歌词

[00:00:00] The Blind Men and the Elephant - Natalie Merchant
[00:00:01] It was six men of Indostan
[00:00:04] To learning much inclined
[00:00:08] Who went to see the Elephant
[00:00:10] (Though all of them were blind)
[00:00:16] That each by observation
[00:00:20] Might satisfy his mind
[00:00:39] The First approached the Elephant
[00:00:42] And happening to fall
[00:00:46] Against his broad and sturdy side
[00:00:49] At once began to bawl:
[00:00:52] "God bless me but the Elephant
[00:00:57] Is very like a wall "
[00:01:01] The Second feeling of the tusk
[00:01:04] Cried "Ho what have we here
[00:01:08] So very round and smooth and sharp
[00:01:11] To me 'tis mighty clear
[00:01:15] This wonder of an Elephant
[00:01:17] Is very like a spear "
[00:01:41] The Third approached the animal
[00:01:44] And happening to take
[00:01:48] The squirming trunk within his hands
[00:01:51] Thus boldly up and spake:
[00:01:54] "I see " quoth he "the Elephant
[00:02:00] Is very like a snake "
[00:02:03] The Fourth reached out an eager hand
[00:02:06] And felt about the knee
[00:02:10] "What most this wondrous beast is like
[00:02:13] Is mighty plain " quoth he;
[00:02:16] "'Tis clear enough the Elephant
[00:02:19] Is very like a tree "
[00:02:43] The Fifth who chanced to touch the ear
[00:02:47] Said: "E'en the blindest man
[00:02:51] Can tell what this resembles most;
[00:02:53] Deny the fact who can
[00:02:57] This marvel of an Elephant
[00:02:59] Is very like a fan "
[00:03:04] The Sixth no sooner had begun
[00:03:08] About the beast to grope
[00:03:11] Than seizing on the swinging tail
[00:03:14] That fell within his scope
[00:03:18] "I see " quoth he "the Elephant
[00:03:22] Is very like a rope "
[00:03:44] And so these men of Indostan
[00:03:48] Disputed loud and long
[00:03:51] Each in his opinion
[00:03:54] Exceeding stiff and strong
[00:03:58] Though each was partly in the right
[00:04:00] And all were in the wrong
[00:04:04] So oft in theologic wars
[00:04:06] The disputants I ween
[00:04:10] Rail on in utter ignorance
[00:04:13] Of what each other mean
[00:04:16] And prate about an Elephant
[00:04:19] Not one of them has seen
