Ikonodrama - Dead Master

Generations ago
Your flame so brightly shone
And then the light was gone
Cinders are still aglow
You were a visionary
And taught us how to query
How to solve the unknown
Today we all follow

You left your message on the Stone
This message that we care to know
The words we have so often read
We don't believe that you are dead
Cos you live on in your Great Book
And they can see you, those who look
One day you will return

Generations ago
Life was much different though
You sensed what was to come
Showed us another door
You were a visionary
With visions all so scary
Although your end was close
You saved us from horror

You left your message on the Stone
The arrow telling where to go
The sign we could not find so long
We understood we're not alone
Cos you live on in your Great Book
And they can see you, those who look
One day you will return
And we shall proudly shout your name

Generations ahead
Your incarnation is back
