Текст песни 2112 (Oracle: The Dream) (Rush) с переводом

… «I guess it was a dream, but even now it all seems so vivid to me.

Clearly yet I see the beckoning hand of the oracle as he stood at the summit

of the staircase» …

… «I see still the incredible beauty of the sculptured cities and the pure

spirit of man revealed in the lives and works of this world. I was overwhelmed

by both wonder and understanding as I saw a completely different way to life,

a way that had been crushed by the Federation long ago. I saw now how

meaningless life had become with the loss of all these things …»

I wandered home though the silent streets

And fell into a fitful sleep

Escape to realms beyond the night

Dream can’t you show me the light?

I stand atop a spiral stair

An oracle confronts me there

He leads me on light years away

Through astral nights, galactic days

I see the works of gifted hands

That grace this strange and wondrous land

I see the hand of man arise

With hungry mind and open eyes

They left the planet long ago

The elder race still learn and grow

Their power grows with purpose strong

To claim the home where they belong

Home to tear the Temples down…

Home to change!
