    Vor über zwanzig Jahren habe ich diesen Song nach Emma Lazarus' "The New Colossus" geschrieben und letzte Woche neu aufgenommen. Leider ist er aktueller denn je.

    "Dream Of The World"

    Dream Of The World

(M: Dennis Plöger, T: Emma Lazarus, Dennis Plöger)

Not like the brazen giant of greek fame
with conquering limbs astride from land to land.
Here at our sea-washed sunset gates shall stand
a mighty woman with a torch.
 
Whose flame is the imprisoned lightning
and her name Mother of Exiles.
 
​You can live if you want to be free
​in the land of the thousand dreams.
​You can breath really free, if you only mind to see,
stand together, help each other, be as one. ​
 
From her beacon hand glows world-wide welcome,
her mild eyes command the air-bridged harbour. (that twin cities frame)
"Keep ancient lands your storied pomp", cries she,
with silent lips, "give me your tired, your poor.
 
Your huddled masses yearning to be free,
the wretched refuse of your teeming shore."
 
​You can live if you want to be free
​in the land of the thousand dreams.
​You can breath really free, if you only mind to see,
stand together, help each other, be as one. ​
 
"Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me
I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
 
​You can live if you want to be free
​in the land of the thousand dreams.
​For this we will fight, we will shout and we will cry,
​cause this is the only dream of the world.
​You can breath really free, if you only mind to see.
stand together, help each other, be as one.
