The Nine Billion Names Of God
Unraveling the Cosmic Quest: Nine Billion Names of Revelation
Lyrics
Sir, you got to help us
Sir, a plea for assistance in a significant endeavor.
In our greatest mission
Expressing the importance of their mission.
We´re trying to find
The quest to understand and grasp.
Get into our minds
An appeal to enter their thoughts or consciousness.
The nine billion names He´s got
The vast number of names associated with God.
We guess a computer
Suggesting the use of a computer for this complex task.
Will take one hundred days
Anticipating a lengthy period, symbolized by one hundred days.
To let us know
Waiting for the revelation.
What we´re born to know:
Reflecting on the purpose of human existence.
The nine billion names of God
The ultimate knowledge: the nine billion names of God.
«You know what I have found out?
Introducing a realization or discovery.
These simple men seem to be sure
Acknowledging the certainty expressed by ordinary people.
The last name of God
Suggesting a profound significance attached to the last name of God.
Will signify the end!»
Linking the last name to the concept of an end or conclusion.
We spent three hundred winters
Highlighting a lengthy passage of time—three hundred winters.
We´d spend some thousand more
Expressing willingness to endure more time for the mission.
But now, our souls are happy
A sense of contentment and fulfillment in their souls.
Lord has surely helped us
Attributing success to the assistance of the Lord.
Soon we will reach the end
Expectation of reaching the mission's conclusion soon.
«You must believe, I´m not scared
Asserting fearlessness and belief in the endeavor.
Just face the facts, I wouldn´t dare
Facing the reality of the situation without hesitation.
To look at those men
Avoiding a gaze at those who recognize their failure.
As they realise they failed»
Observing the reaction of individuals realizing their shortcomings.
