Come forth, from love's spire
Born in life's fire,
Born in life's fire.
Come forth, from love's spire
In the burning, all are [of our] yearning,
for life to be.
And in pain there will [must] be gain,
New Life!
Stirring in, salty streams
And dark hidden seams
Where the fossil sun gleams.
They were, sent from [to] the gates
Ride the tides of fate
Ride the tides of fate.
They were, sent from [to] the gates,
In the burning all are [of our] yearning,
For life to be.
There's no end to my life,
No beginning to my death:
Death is life

Emerson, Lake and Palmer (ELP) sono un gruppo rock progressivo britannico formatosi nel 1970. Il trio è composto da Keith Emerson (tastiere), Greg Lake (voce, basso) e Carl Palmer (batteria). Considerati uno dei primi supergruppi del progressive rock, ELP hanno raggiunto fama internazionale per i loro arrangiamenti orchestrali complessi, le performance energiche dal vivo e l'uso innovativo di strumenti elettronici. Tra gli album più importanti figurano *Emerson, Lake and Palmer* (1970), *Tarkus* (1971), *Pictures at an Exhibition* (1971) e *Brain Salad Surgery* (1973). Dopo un periodo di successo commerciale negli anni '70, ELP si sono sciolti nel 1978. Un breve reunion senza Palmer ha avuto luogo nel 1985 con il nome Emerson, Lake and Powell, seguito da una riunione completa nel 1992 che ha portato a nuovi album e tour fino alla fine degli anni '90. Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi di ELP includono "Lucky Man", "Karn Evil 9", "Fanfare for the Common Man" e "Hoedown".
