Excerpt: Baby BoyBaby boy, what are you? A king, they say? What king lies on a bed of straw When silk, or the finest cotton Should cradle a royal head? Baby boy, what are you? A Lord, they say? What Lord breathes stink of ass and ox Should only perfumes of jasmine And sweet musk suffice? Baby boy, what are you? Saviour, they say? Saviour in a humble stable, Born beneath a holy star A child and yet a king? Lord of Light, Peace and Joy, You are a Saviour, Saviour of the World. You are a lord, O Lord of Love. You are a king, King of my heart. | ||||||||||||||||||
