We are ancients

As ancient as the sun

We came from the ocean

Once our ancestral home

So that one day

We could all return

To our birthright

The great celestial dome

We are the children of the sun

Our journey's just begun

Sunflowers in our hair

We are the children of the sun

There is room for everyone

Sunflowers in our hair

Throughout the ages

Of iron bronze and stone

We marvelled at the night sky

And what may lie beyond

We burned offerings

To the elemental ones

Made sacrifices

For beauty peace and love

We are the children of the sun

Our kingdom will come

Sunflowers in our hair

We are the children of the sun

Our carnival's begun

Our songs will fill the air

And you know it's time

To look for reasons why

Just reach up and touch the sky

To the heavens we'll ascend

We are the children of the sun

Our journey has begun

All the older children

Come out at night

Anaemic soulless

Great hunger in their eyes

Unaware of the beauty

That sleeps tonight

And all the queen's horses

And all the king's men

Will never put these children back

Together again

Faith hope our charities

Greed sloth our enemies

We are the children of the sun

We are the children of the sun
