“… I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah …”
 
‘Hallelujah’ : :  Leonard Cohen  ‘Various Positions’  (1984)
 
… were the words I heard, being sung by a young busking harpist, on Cardiff’s Queen Street … I was compelled to listen.
