Yesterday is History
'Tis so far away -
Yesterday is Poetry -
'Tis Philosophy -
Yesterday is mystery -

While we shrewdly speculate
Flutter both away

Gisteren is Historie
Is niet meer te zien -
Gisteren is Poëzie -
Is Filosofie
Gisteren is mysterie -
Waar het is Vandaag -
Bij ons schrander onderzoek
Fladderen beide weg
