Sting - beneath a desert moon

작사는 아버지의 유산과 그 땅에서 살아가는 다양한 사람들의 삶을 통해 공동체의 중요성을 강조한다
그들은 서로 다른 배경을 가지고 있지만, 모두 함께 힘을 모아 미래를 바꾸고 싶어 한다
결국, 더 많은 시간을 통해 그들의 요구와 소망을 실현하고자 하는 갈망을 표현하고 있다

From the mountains of the moon to the mighty delta
From the deserts of the West to the shining sea
Beneath the canopy of stars flowed the serpent river
Flowing through my father's land that he left to me
From the baker to the priest to the candle maker
From the highest to the low in my father's land
We make our offer to the sun 'fore the break of morning
Or else everything we have will just turn to sand
I have a lot to ask
I have a lot that I need to say
I have so much to do
And all I need is another day
From the soldier to the scribe to the carpet maker
All the different colored threads in a carpet loom
A woven tapestry of life is our mighty nation
This is the writing on the wall of my father's tomb
We have a lot to ask
We have a lot that we need to say
We have so much to do
And all we need is another day
