I'll Call Thee Hamlet

Angels and ministers of grace defend us! Be thou a spirit of health or goblin damn'd Bring with thee airs from heaven or blasts from hell Be thy intents wicked or charitable Thou com'st in such a questionable shape That I will speak to thee – speak to thee – speak to thee Speak to thee – speak to thee I'll call thee Hamlet / I'll call thee Hamlet, o answer me It will not speak, then I will follow it – follow it I do not set my life at a pin 's fee And for my soul, what can it do to that And for my soul, what can it do to that Being a thing immortal as itself It waves me forth again - forth again - forth again I'll follow it – (I'll) follow it – (I'll) follow it I'll call thee Hamlet / I'll call thee Hamlet King, father, royal Dane / king, father, royal Dane O answer me What may this mean, that thou Dead corse, again in complete steel Revisits thus the glimpses of the moon Making night hideous / and we fools of nature So horridly to shake our disposition - our disposition With thoughts beyond the reaches of our souls? With thoughts beyond the reaches of our souls? Say why is this? wherefore? Say why is this? wherefore? I'll call thee Hamlet I'll call thee Hamlet King, father, royal Dane / king, father, royal Dane Credits From Hamlet, released 19 April 2013 Hamlet is a production of Staatsschauspiel Dresden / directed by Roger Vontobel
