(Smith/Daugherty)
In the garden of consciousness
In fertile mind there lies the dormant
seed
When blooming as charity
Conscience breathes a sigh of relief
The confessions of sleep
The awakening seed
Moved by love to serve
We celebrate all
Merit in life
Ah, the confessions of sleep
Unfolding peace
As we extend
According to need
And you will hear the call
All action great and small
Received joyfully
Heaven abounds
Let love resound
If he be mute
Give him a bell
If he be blind, an eye
It he be down, a hand
Lift up your voice
Lift up your voice
Lift up your voice
Give of your mind one mind
Give of your heart one heart
Give of your voice
One voice
The lyrics ONE VOICE of PATTI SMITH is also present in the album Gung ho (2000)
Patti Smith (Patricia Lee Smith) è una cantautrice, poetessa e artista statunitense nata a Chicago nel 1946. Considerata un'icona del rock alternativo, ha influenzato generazioni di musicisti con il suo stile unico che fonde punk, poesia e performance teatrale. Nel decennio settanta, Smith si è affermata come figura chiave del movimento proto-punk e della New wave, guadagnandosi il soprannome di "sacerdotessa maudite del rock" per il suo carisma interpretativo e la profondità dei suoi testi. Il suo album di debutto, *Horses* (1975), è considerato un classico del genere e contiene brani iconici come "Gloria", "Because the Night" e "Piss Factory". Smith ha collaborato con artisti come Bruce Springsteen, Iggy Pop e Fred Sonic Smith. La sua carriera si è estesa oltre la musica, includendo anche l'attività di scrittrice e artista visiva. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo *Radio Ethiopia* (1976), *Easter* (1978) e *Wave* (2004).
