Jane Siberry - Begat Begat Lyrics

oh
everyone is sayin' the same thing
it's in the air

these are the days of open
and procession

oh
these are the ones you will be
walking with
streaming with
kneeling with
singing with

mahalaleel shushan shibboleth
tarshish shadrak vashtish jared
shebadiah shebaniah shushan
mahalaleel shekaniah amariah
anathoth

and numbering in the...

oh and you're moving past the
walls of the city
to the great open-ness
it's in the air
it's in the air

and the grass is starting to grow
and the rivers are starting to run
it's in the air
singin' the same song
singin' the same song
singin' the same song

oh and the birds are starting to
return
oh, seein' them seein' them
and the sap...oh
the trees are starting to turn
and the little lamb...

spring is in the air
singing' the same song

oh
beautiful child
there is much ahead
there is much ahead
there is much joy
there is much joy
there is much joy

oh
there is much ahead
children
children
children
