NIETZSCHE
A sombre silhouetteAgainst a sun-rise skyIn solemn solitude,The wanderer goes by.The shadow that he castsUpon the plains belowStrikes terror to the heartsOf those that do not know.O messenger sublimeWho hailest from that landWhere joy and beauty reign;If they could understand!...If they could understandThe message that you bring,They’d strew your path with palms;Hosannahs would they sing.Strength superceding faith,Joy superceding fear:The Super-Christ has come;The Superman is near....

A sombre silhouette
Against a sun-rise sky
In solemn solitude,
The wanderer goes by.

The shadow that he casts
Upon the plains below
Strikes terror to the hearts
Of those that do not know.
O messenger sublimeWho hailest from that landWhere joy and beauty reign;If they could understand!...
O messenger sublime
Who hailest from that land
Where joy and beauty reign;

Strength superceding faith,
Joy superceding fear:
The Super-Christ has come;
The Superman is near....
