Enlightenment (1975)
Ten days I followed a forgotten road
In the land of total enlightenment
On the eleventh day I came to an abode
To where all faithful souls are sent
I enter a temple decorated in bronze and gold
And walk to the statue I love and praise
It was a powerful leader that I did behold
Kneeling I offer prayers. His soul I raise
I offer a strange and secret prayer
In a language foreign to my own
And a pleasing odor fills the air
My body now spirit. No longer flesh and bone.
Realizing now that new life has begun
I see a light that is not from the sun
