Mother of Muses

Bob Dylan

Transposer:

Mother of Muses sing for me Sing of the mountains and the deep dark sea Sing of the lakes and the nymphs of the forest Sing your hearts out all your women of the Chorus Sing of honor and fate and glory be Mother of Muses sing for me Mother of Muses sing for my heart Sing of a love too soon to depart Sing of the heroes who stood alone Whose names are engraved on tablets of stone Who struggled with pain so the world could go free Mother of Muses sing for me Sing of Sherman Montgomery and Scott And of Zhukov and Patton and the battles they fought Who cleared the path for Presley to sing Who carved the path for Martin Luther King Who did what they did and they went on their way Man I could tell their stories all day I'm falling in love with Calliope She don't belong to anyone why not give her to me? She's speaking to me speaking with her eyes I've grown so tired of chasing lies Mother of Muses wherever you are I've already outlived my life by far Mother of Muses unleash your wrath Things I can't see they're blocking my path Show me your wisdom tell me my fate Put me upright make me walk straight Forge my identity from the in side out You know what I'm talking about Take me to the river release your charms Let me lay down a while in your sweet loving arms Wake me shake me free me from sin Make me invisible like the wind Got a mind that ramble got a mind that roam I'm travelin' light and I'm a-slow coming home

La chanson évoque une quête spirituelle et artistique, où l'artiste demande à la Mère des Muses de lui chanter non seulement des légendes de la nature et des histoires de héros historiques, mais aussi des récits d'amour et de sacrifice. Il est question de personnages marquants qui ont contribué à des luttes et à des changements, tant sur le plan personnel que sociétal. L'artiste exprime son désir d'authenticité et de guidance, tout en cherchant à se libérer des mensonges et des illusions qui l’entourent. Cette chanson se situe dans un contexte de réflexion et de remise en question personnelle, où l'aspiration à la vérité et à la créativité est palpable. La figure des Muses symbolise l’inspiration que l’on attend pour avancer sur le chemin de la vie, en puisant dans le passé pour forger son propre destin. C'est un voyage à travers les souvenirs, les rêves et les luttes, cherchant à comprendre sa place dans le monde.
