	作词 : Cohen, Sainte-Marie
	God is alive; Magic is afoot
	God is alive; Magic is afoot
	God is afoot; Magic is alive
	Alive is afoot.
	Magic never died.
	God never sickened;
	many poor men lied
	many sick men lied
	Magic never weakened
	Magic never hid
	Magic always ruled
	God is afoot
	God never died.
	God was ruler
	Though his funeral lengthened
	Though his mourners thickened
	Magic never fled
	Though his shrouds were hoisted
	the naked God did live
	Though his words were twisted
	the naked Magic thrived
	Though his death was published
	round and round the world
	the heart did not believe
	Many hurt men wondered
	many struck men bled
	Magic never faltered
	Magic always led.
	Many stones were rolled
	but God would not lie down
	Many wild men lied
	many fat men listened
	Though they offered stones
	Magic still was fed
	Though they locked their coffers
	God was always served.
	Magic is afoot. God rules.
	Alive is afoot. Alive is in command.
	Many weak men hungered
	Many strong men thrived
	Though they boasted solitude
	God was at their side
	Nor the dreamer in his cell
	nor the captain on the hill
	Magic is alive
	Though his death was pardoned
	round and round the world
	the heart did not believe.
	Though laws were carved in marble
	they could not shelter men
	Though altars built in parliaments
	they could not order men
	Police arrested Magic
	and Magic went with them,
	for Magic loves the hungry.
	But Magic would not tarry
	it moves from arm to arm
	it would not stay with them
	Magic is afoot
	it cannot come to harm
	it rests in an empty palm
	it spawns in an empty mind
	but Magic is no instrument
	Magic is the end.
	Many men drove Magic
	but Magic stayed behind
	Many strong men lied
	they only passed through Magic
	and out the other side
	Many weak men lied
	they came to God in secret
	and though they left him nourished
	they would not tell who healed
	Though mountains danced before them
	they said that God was dead
	Though his shrouds were hoisted
	the naked God did live
	This I mean to whisper to my mind
	This I mean to laugh with in my mind
	This I mean my mind to serve 'til
	service is but Magic
	moving through the world
	and mind itself is Magic
	coursing through the flesh
	and flesh itself is Magic
	dancing on a clock
	and time itself the magic length of God
