Boy of wonder, look at yourself
Oh boy of wonder
Before you fall into the ocean called society
Look here onto the shores of change
And swim onto it
Oh boy of wonder
Before you start looking at what the world says you are
Remember what God says you are
What have you done?
Oh boy of wonder
What a man without dreams you have
Grown up to be
A man without ambition
A man without vision
This is not the father's plan
This is not what has been
This was not what we began with
This is not what was seen
Oh boy of wonder
Why have you gone so far?
Where are you now?
Look back,
Look back and turn around
Never should your heart be so stiff
That it cannot beat
Never should your mind be so cold
That it cannot give warmth
Never should you be as stiff as a statue.
Oh boy of wonder
What have you done?
Where are you now?
Oh boy of wonder,
Stranded and lost in society and identity
Confused and baffled
Oh boy of wonder
Striving and struggling with peasants for scraps
A boy chosen by destiny, to be without scars
But to be on top of the world
In thrones and in glory.
What have they done to you?
What have you become?
Timipa
