lyrics

Song (Ginsberg)

The weight of the world / is love.
Under the burden / of solitude,
under the burden / of dissatisfaction

the weight, / the weight we carry / is love.

Who can deny? / in dreams / it touches / the body,
in thought / constructs / a miracle,
in imagination / anguishes / till born / in human —

looks out of the heart / burning with purity —
for the burden of life / is love,

but we carry the weight / wearily,
and so must rest / in the arms of love / at last,
must rest in the arms / of love.

No rest / without love
no sleep / without dreams / of love —
be mad or chill / obsessed with angels / or machines,
the final wish is love
— cannot be bitter, / cannot deny,
cannot withhold, / if denied:

the weight is too heavy

— must give / for no return
as thought / is given / in solitude
in all the excellence / of its excess.

The warm bodies / shine together / in the darkness,
the hand moves / to the center of the flesh,
the skin trembles / in happiness
and the soul comes / joyful to the eye —

yes, yes, / that's what / I wanted, / I always wanted,
to return / to the body / where I was born.
