(In a time when the world of study belonged only 
to men, there lived a girl who dared to ask "why") 
[Prayer] 
God, our merciful father, 
I`m wrapped in a robe of light, 
Clothed in your glory 
That spreads its wings over my soul. 
Maybe I be worthy 
Amen. 
 
There`s not a morning I begin without 
A thousand questions running through my mind, 
That I don`t try to find the reason and the logic 
In the world that God designed. 
The reason why 
a bird was given wings, 
If not to fly and praise the sky 
With every song it sings. 
What`s right or wrong, 
Where I belong 
Within the scheme of things... 
And why have eyes that see 
And arms that reach 
Unless you`re meant to know 
There`s something more? 
If not to hunger for the meaning of it all, 
Then tell me what a soul is for? 
Why have the wings 
Unless you`re meant to fly? 
And tell me please, why have a mind 
If not to question why? 
And tell me where- 
Where is it written what it is 
I`m meant to be, that I can`t dare 
To have the chance to pick the fruit of every tree, 
Or have my share of every sweet-imagined possibility? 
Just tell me where, tell me where? 
If I were only meant to tend the nest, 
Then why does my imagination sail 
Across the mountains and the seas, 
Beyond the make-believe of any fairy tale? 
Why have the thirst if not to drink the wine? 
And what a waste to have a taste 
Of things that can`t he mine? 
And tell me where, where is it written what it is 
I`m meant to be, that I can`t dare- 
To find the meanings in the mornings that I see, 
Or have my share of every sweet-imagined possibility? 
Just tell me where- where is it written? 
Tell me where- 
Or if it`s written anywhere?
