Barn är ett folk och dom bor i ett främmande
land,
detta land är en äng och en vind.
Där finner kanske en pojke ett nytt Samarkand
och far bort på en svängande grind.
Där går en flicka som sjunger om kottar.
Själv äger hon två.
Där vid ett plank står en pojke och klottrar -
att jorden är blå.
Där går en pojke som blev indian.
Där där går Kungen av Skugga runt stan
och skuggar bovar.
Där fann en flicka en festlig grimas
som hon provar.
Alla är barn, och dom tillhör
det gåtfulla folket.
Barn är ett folk och dom bor i ett främmande land,
detta land är en gård och ett skjul.
Där sker det farliga tågöverfallet ibland
vackra kvällar när månen är gul.
Där går en pojke och gissar på bilar,
själv vinner han jämt.
Fåglarnas sånger i olika stilar
är magiska skämt.
Där blir en värdelös sak till en skatt
Där där blir sängar till fartyg en natt
och går till månen.
Där finns det riken som ingen av oss
tar ifrån dem.
Alla är barn, och dom tillhör
det gåtfulla folket.
