The Wheel For Nora And Nicaragua Lyrics

(by P. Kantner)

       (Translated by Margaret Randall)



WE CAN BE ONE WORLD                  WE WILL BE ONE WORLD

In the Jungles of the Mountain Young Nora loves the mountain

And the Mountain feeds the people and the Wheel keeps on turnin' REVOLUTION!



And the Wheel keeps on rollin' firmly toward Tomorrow

And the Mountain speaks clearly to the People in the Streets

And they sit and watch the Motion watch it rollin' by

Some climb aboard and roll into the Future  EVOLUTION!



AND THE WHEEL KEEPS ON TURNIN'

IT TURNS AND ROLLS FOREVER

THE WHEEL IS LIFE AND CHILDREN AND IT

GOES ON FOREVER  AND IT'S    ROLL  ROLL  ROLL



WE WILL BE ONE COUNTRY                WE WILL BE ONE WORLD

WE CAN BE                             ONE WORLD



I dreamt I was in Love again with the Lady of the Mountain

The Lighthouse Keeper's daughter the Seer of Visions and I

Smiled at the pain of our innocent past

Of Love on the wheel in the Circle at the heart of  DEVOTION!



And the Wind from the Mountain blew across our love affair

And awakened the heart to the Roll of the Wheel

And the Night grew still and no wind was blowin'

I know this was the hour                            LIBERATION!



AND THE WHEEL KEEPS ON TURNIN'

IT WON'T GO AWAY

IT WILL NOT BE DENIED AND IT

GOES ON FOREVER AND IT'S



ROLL  ROLL  ROLL    THE CIRCLE IS UNBROKEN

WE WILL BE ONE WORLD                  WE CAN BE ONE WORLD

WE WILL SEE                           ONE WORLD



Dreams don't die they don't wave goodbye

Unless you let them go and watch them die in fury



"Freedom is like Wheat it must be planted softly

And watered everyday and it must be protected till it

multiplies and fills the mouth of the Wind

And the hunger of All becomes invincible"



Ringing from the Mountain  Fire from the Mountain

In the heart of the Volcano the Future is born



WE WILL BE ONE WORLD

AND IT GOES ON FOREVER

ROLLING TOWARD TOMORROW IN THE

STREETS OF FOREVER  AND IT'S

ROLL  ROLL  ROLL     THE FUTURE IS UNSPOKEN

AND THE WHEEL KEEPS ON ROLLING       TO ONE WORLD

WE WILL BE                           ONE WORLD

WE CAN SEE ONE WORLD                 WE WILL BE ONE WORLD
