平和な風景

昼間の公園で、たくさんの親子連れがいて、子供達が走り回ってキャー^キャーと響いていたり、
カップルが芝生の上で寝転んでいたり、カイトが飛んでいたり。。
青い空に白い雲。遠くに気球が飛んでいたり。。
そんな風景をふと立ち止まって一歩引いて眺めていると、
平和過ぎて突然何かが起こりそうな感じもしてしまうのは、SFの見過ぎでしょうか・・・
しかし、何ともない、たわいのない事が本当に平和で幸せだな、とふと感じる様になった。
ごく最近だけど。

Title: A Horse With No Name


On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing i met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead

You see i've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After nine days i let the horse run free
'cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

You see i've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
