[01:21.45]We are ancients
[01:24.14]As ancient as the sun
[01:26.64]
[01:29.20]We came from the ocean
[01:30.82]
[01:32.01]Once our ancestral home
[01:33.95]
[01:37.26]So that one day
[01:38.51]
[01:40.20]We could all return
[01:42.00]
[01:45.32]To our birthright
[01:47.13]
[01:48.01]The great celestial dome
[01:50.26]
[01:54.63]We are the children of the sun
[01:56.76]
[01:58.63]Our journey's just begun
[02:00.70]
[02:02.57]Sunflowers in our hair
[02:04.76]
[02:10.63]We are the children of the sun
[02:12.63]
[02:14.57]There is room for everyone
[02:16.13]
[02:18.57]Sunflowers in our hair
[02:21.01]
[02:41.25]Throughout the ages
[02:42.75]
[02:44.20]Of iron, bronze, and stone
[02:46.45]
[02:49.01]We marvelled at the night sky
[02:51.26]
[02:52.07]And what may lie beyond
[02:54.32]
[02:57.07]We burned offerings
[02:58.82]
[02:59.82]To the elemental ones
[03:02.13]
[03:04.94]Made sacrifices
[03:06.57]
[03:07.94]For beauty, peace and love
[03:10.32]
[03:14.57]We are the children of the sun
[03:16.82]
[03:18.63]Our kingdom will come
[03:20.88]
[03:22.57]Sunflowers in our hair
[03:24.50]
[03:30.63]We are the children of the sun
[03:32.88]
[03:34.63]Our carnival's begun
[03:36.82]
[03:38.57]Our songs will fill the air
[03:40.94]
[03:58.68]And you know it's time
[04:01.24]
[04:02.74]To look for reasons why
[04:04.99]
[04:06.68]Just reach up and touch the sky
[04:09.24]
[04:10.61]To the heavens we'll ascend
[04:14.42]
[04:22.54]We are the children of the sun
[04:24.80]
[04:30.61]Our journey has begun
[04:32.86]
[05:20.42]All the older children
[05:22.61]
[05:24.73]Come out at night
[05:26.61]
[05:28.36]Anaemic, soulless
[05:32.05]Great hunger in their eyes
[05:34.86]
[05:40.36]Unaware of the beauty
[05:43.23]
[05:44.73]That sleeps tonight
[05:47.17]
[05:52.36]And all the queen's horses
[05:54.92]
[05:56.11]And all the king's men
[05:58.67]
[06:00.05]Will never put these children back
[06:03.36]
[06:03.92]Together again
[06:08.82]
[06:27.22]Faith, hope, our charities
[06:33.65]
[06:35.09]Greed, sloth, our enemies
[06:41.65]
[06:48.65]We are the children of the sun
[06:51.28]
[07:04.65]We are the children of the sun
[07:07.28]
