Open Your Eyes - Nana Mouskouri

Open Your Eyes - Nana Mouskouri
Open your eyes my newborn son
See your world that's new begun
Growing the land beneath our feet
Heaven sent across to eat
Hush-a-bye taste
The sweetness of your years
By and by we'll all
Learn the taste of tears
Open your eyes my growing son
There is hard work to be done
Follow your father to his toil
Bend your back and break the soil
Who can say what you sow
Beneath the sand
Day by day something
Stirs our sleeping land
Open your eyes my gentle son
Take your leave and take your gun
Follow your father
Through the hills
Heaven gives and heaven kills
Go with God and
The youg men in their prime
Here I'll wait
Where I waited all through time
Open your eyes beloved son
Is your day so quickly done
How can you fall asleep so soon
When the sun stands yet at noon
Walk with me
As we walked spring ago
Come and see the flowers
Have begun to grow
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la
